  • Pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk (or milk alternative)
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

  3. Adjust sweetness: Taste the pudding and add more sweetener if needed to reach your preferred level of sweetness.
  4. Chill to set: Pour the pudding into serving cups and refrigerate for at least one hour to allow it to thicken and set properly.
