Pudding Base

Chantilly Whipped Cream

Toasted Oat-Amaranth Streusel

Method

Pudding Base Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine Milk and Cream

    In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk and heavy cream. Heat over medium heat until just simmering, stirring occasionally.

  2. 2

    Mix Sugars and Cornstarch

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt until well combined.

  3. 3

    Whisk in Egg Yolks

    In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Slowly pour in some of the hot milk mixture to temper the yolks, then whisk the yolk mixture back into the saucepan.

  4. 4

    Thicken the Pudding

    Continue to cook the mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly until it thickens and starts to bubble. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract.

  5. 5

    Cool the Pudding

    Pour the pudding into individual serving dishes or one large dish. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.

Chantilly Whipped Cream Preparation

  1. 6

    Beat Cream

    In a medium bowl, add the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, beat on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.

  2. 7

    Chill

    Refrigerate the whipped cream until ready to serve.

Toasted Oat-Amaranth Streusel Preparation

  1. 8

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 9

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, amaranth, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt.

  3. 10

    Melt Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Pour it over the oat mixture and stir until evenly coated.

  4. 11

    Spread and Toast

    Spread the mixture evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown, stirring occasionally.

  5. 12

    Cool the Streusel

    Once toasted, remove from the oven and let cool completely before using.

Assembly

    Serve the Pudding

  2. 14

    Top with Whipped Cream

    Add a generous dollop of Chantilly whipped cream on top of each pudding serving.

  3. 15

    Add Streusel

    Sprinkle the toasted oat-amaranth streusel over the whipped cream for added texture and flavor.
