Kakamus pudding with custard recipe

Everybody wants dessert after a savoury meal. When spending time with loved ones, there are moments when you simply want to treat everyone to something very delicious. Malva pudding is a staple of the traditional Sunday meal spread in South Africa. The addition of custard to traditional Kakamus pudding is a simple take on a family favourite. Here, instead of just pouring custard over the pudding, it is cooked right into the batter.

So that it may be baked into the sponge, the custard is not as thick as the custard you could eat with the pudding. In addition to its classic appearance, the pudding’s lovely golden brown hue may be credited to the bicarbonate. Having the custard already present in the pudding allows for a great chance to enhance the dish. Try it with some ice cream or whipped topping. The ice cream’s coolness is a welcome contrast to the pudding’s warmth.

Changing things up a little bit for the Sunday dinner with the family and friends is sometimes necessary. Kakamus pudding is a timeless dessert, but you may surprise them by giving it a new spin.
