❤️ Why You’ll Love This Caramel Pudding

Smooth, rich, and melt-in-the-mouth — this classic caramel pudding (also known as crème caramel or caramel custard) is the perfect make-ahead dessert. Made with just a handful of ingredients — milk, eggs, sugar, and vanilla — it’s the ultimate comfort dessert that’s as elegant as it is delicious.

🛒 Ingredients

For the Caramel:

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp water

For the Custard:

  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt (optional)

🔥 Instructions

Step 1: Make the Caramel

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the sugar and water without stirring. Swirl the pan until the sugar turns deep amber.
Immediately pour into your pudding mold or ramekins, tilting to coat the base evenly.


Step 2: Prepare the Custard

In a saucepan, heat milk until warm (not boiling).
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Slowly pour the warm milk into the egg mixture while whisking to avoid scrambling.
Strain the mixture through a sieve for extra smoothness.


Step 3: Assemble & Bake

Pour the custard over the caramel in the mold(s). Place molds in a baking dish and add hot water to create a water bath (bain-marie).

Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 40–45 minutes, or until set but slightly jiggly in the center.


Step 4: Chill & Unmold

Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
To unmold, run a knife around the edge and gently invert onto a plate.


🧡 Tips & Variations

Tip or Variation Why It Helps
Use full-fat milk Gives a rich and creamy texture
Strain the custard Removes lumps for silky pudding
Don’t overbake Keeps the texture smooth and tender
Add orange zest For a citrus twist on classic flavor
Use coconut milk For a dairy-free tropical variation

❓ FAQ

Q: Can I make caramel pudding without an oven?
Yes! You can steam the pudding on the stovetop for 30–35 minutes over medium-low heat.

Q: Why did my caramel harden instantly?
It sets quickly — make sure to pour it into the mold immediately after it turns amber.

Q: How long can I store it?
Up to 3–4 days in the fridge, covered tightly.
