Ingredients
- 200 grams blueberries
- 200 grams raspberries
- 500 milliliters whole milk
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 4 large egg yolks
- 30 grams cornstarch
- 30 grams unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
- 5 leaves (optional, for garnish) mint leaves
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, heat the whole milk over medium-low heat until it is just about to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, granulated sugar, and cornstarch until the mixture is pale and smooth.
Step 3
Slowly pour about 1/4 of the hot milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent them from curdling.
Step 4
Gradually whisk the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from the heat, and stir in the unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until fully combined. Let the pudding cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
Step 6
While the pudding cools, in a separate bowl, gently toss the blueberries and raspberries with the powdered sugar. Set aside.
Step 7
To assemble the pudding, divide half of the pudding mixture evenly into serving glasses or bowls. Layer half of the sugared berries on top of the pudding.
Step 8
Add the remaining pudding on top of the berries, followed by the rest of the berry mixture.
Step 9
Refrigerate the puddings for at least 1 hour to chill and allow the flavors to combine.
Step 10
Before serving, garnish each pudding with fresh mint leaves for a touch of color and aroma, if desired. Serve cold and enjoy!
