How to Make Almond Raisin Pudding Pudin De Almendras

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Soak 1/2 cup raisins in 1/4 cup sherry or orange juice for 20 minutes. Drain well.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs and 3/4 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Stir in 1 cup heavy cream, 1/2 cup slivered almonds, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, the soaked raisins, 1 teaspoon orange zest, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Divide the pudding mixture evenly among 6 buttered custard cups or ramekins.
  6. Place the ramekins in a larger baking pan. Pour enough warm water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins (this creates a bain-marie).
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pudding is set and lightly browned on top.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving warm or chilled. Top with whipped cream, if desired.
