When I was growing up I used to love making pudding from scratch. It was so easy and so much better than the boxed kind or especially the pre-made in those little plasitc cups. Just a little milke, sugar, vanilla, butter and cornstarch was all that was needed.

For the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) it’s easy enough to substitute honey for the sugar, but the corn starch was a little more tricky. I found that you can get a nice thick – but not too thick – pudding using eggs to thicken it.

Basically it’s like a soft custard that’s not baked, though to me it tastes much more like regular pudding than custard.

For this recipe I used lime juice, but you could also substitute lemon juice to make lemon pudding instead.
