INGREDIENTS
Filling:
5 cups peaches, peeled and diced, fresh or frozen
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup whole milk
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Topping:
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 cups water
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Ice cream/whipped cream/cool whip, optional, garnish
Steps
Preheat your oven to 400 and from there, grease a baking dish with a nonstick spray, or with some butter.
Get a saucepan, and then over heat that’s medium, whisk together the brown sugar, the sugar, along with the nutmeg, and then mix the butter in, and also include the water. Boil this, and then stir this until the sugar dissolves fully into this.
When it’s all fully dissolved, you can then remove this from the heat, put it to the side.
Get a larger bowl, and from there, whisk in there the sugar, the flour, the salt, the baking soda, the nutmeg, and the cinnamon, mixing all of this until it fully combines.
Put the milk along with the vanilla extract in there, mixing it until it’s fully smoothed out, and then, take your diced peaches and fold them into this whole mixture.
Take the filling and pour this directly into a baking dish that’s greased. From there take the topping, and then pour this over the top.
Place this in the oven for about 50-55 minutes, keeping aluminum foil to cover this f needed. Wait until this is cooked through.
Take it out of the oven, let it sit for about 15 minutes before you serve this.
Tips
Can I keep this in the fridge when I’m done?
You can! The cool thing about this, is that you can serve this warm or chilled, and it works well for up to a week in the fridge in most cases, so you don’t have to worry about it possibly affecting the way the pudding is.
Can I serve this warm or cold?
This is your decision.
Some people like the warm pudding, so they’ll opt for warmer pudding, since it’s a bit more hearty and savory.
If you like to have a nice, cooler treat on a hot summer day though, there is absolutely nothing stopping you from using this to make cool pudding, so it’s something that comes with a versatile recipe, and one that you will definitely want to look at, and one that is worth checking out too.
