Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour?
Yes, you can substitute whole wheat flour for all-purpose flour, but keep in mind it may alter the texture slightly, making it denser. You might want to use a mix of both flours to maintain a lighter texture while still adding some whole grain benefits.
Is it possible to make this recipe dairy-free?
Absolutely! You can replace the sweet milk with a plant-based milk like almond, soy, or oat milk. Additionally, use a dairy-free butter substitute to keep the recipe vegan-friendly, ensuring a similar taste and consistency.
What can I do if my batter is too thick?
If your batter seems too thick, you can add a little more sweet milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach a smoother consistency. Be cautious not to overdo it, as you want to maintain the integrity of the pudding's texture.
