How to Make Easy Pudding
- In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (ensure it's corn-free), and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually whisk in 2 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy), ensuring no lumps form.
- Microwave on high for 5-7 minutes, stirring every 3 minutes until the mixture is smooth and thickened.
- In a separate bowl, lightly whisk 1 large egg. Slowly drizzle a few tablespoons of the hot pudding mixture into the egg, whisking constantly to temper the egg.
- Pour the tempered egg mixture into the main pudding mixture and whisk to combine.
- Microwave on high for 1-3 minutes, stirring every minute until the pudding has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Remove from microwave and stir in 2 tablespoons butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Pour into serving dishes and let cool slightly before serving.

- **For Cream of Rice Pudding:** Follow steps 1-8, using 2 1/2 cups of milk and stirring in 2 cups of cooked rice in step 7.
