How to Make Homemade Pudding From Scratch

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt.
  2. Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth.
  3. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens (about 8-10 minutes).
  4. Reduce heat to low and continue to stir for 2-3 minutes, ensuring the pudding is smooth and no longer lumpy.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  6. Pour the pudding into individual serving dishes.
  7. Press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
  9. Serve chilled and enjoy!
