Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using fresh corn instead of cream-style corn, blending it for a smoother texture. You can substitute the milk with a non-dairy alternative like almond or oat milk for a lactose-free option. If you're short on time, pre-cooked frozen corn can be a quick alternative. Ensure you beat the eggs thoroughly for a fluffier pudding.
