How to make Luiz Felipe Pudding

  1. Step 1

    Place the 9 tablespoons of sugar into a flan mold.

  2. Step 2

    Heat gently over low heat until the sugar melts and turns golden.

  3. Step 3

    Once caramelized, remove from the heat and tilt the mold to evenly coat the bottom and sides with caramel.

  4. Step 4

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).

  5. Step 5

    In a blender, combine the eggs, 3 cups of sugar, margarine, and a little of the milk. Blend until smooth.

  6. Step 6

    Gradually add the flour, continuing to blend.

  7. Step 7

    Add the cornstarch and the remaining milk, and blend again until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.

  8. Step 8

    Pour the blended mixture into the caramel-coated mold. Cover the mold with aluminum foil.

  9. Step 9

    Place the mold in a bain-marie (a larger baking dish with hot water) and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (392°F) for 35 to 45 minutes.

  10. Step 10

    For the last 5 minutes of baking, remove the foil so the top can brown slightly.

    Allow the pudding to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate.

  12. Step 12

    Remove from the oven and let the flan rest for 5 minutes. Carefully unmold onto a serving plate.

Tips & Tricks

FAQS

    Use a gluten-free flour blend instead of all-purpose flour.

  3. Can I store the pudding in the refrigerator?

    Yes, you can refrigerate it for up to a week in an airtight container.

  4. What can I serve with Luiz Felipe Pudding?

    Serve with a dusting of powdered sugar or a dollop of whipped cream.

  5. Is there a lighter version of this recipe?

    For a lighter version, substitute half of the butter with Greek yogurt.
