Tips:

  • Choose the right lemons. Use fresh, ripe lemons with a bright yellow skin. Avoid lemons that are green or have blemishes.
  • Zest the lemons finely. This will release the most flavor from the lemons.
  • Use unsalted butter. This will prevent the pudding from being too salty.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the pudding, making it light and fluffy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the pudding from curdling.
  • Stir in the lemon juice and zest. Do not boil the pudding after adding the lemon juice, as this will cause it to curdle.
  • Pour the pudding into a greased baking dish. This will help to prevent the pudding from sticking to the dish.
  • Bake the pudding in a preheated oven until it is set. The pudding is done when it is firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Serve the pudding warm or chilled. The pudding can be served on its own or with whipped cream, fruit, or ice cream.

Fluffy lemon pudding is a light, refreshing, and delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its bright lemon flavor and fluffy texture, this pudding is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
