Why You Will Love This Recipe

Get ready to treat yourself to a burst of sunshine with this easy orange pudding! Inspired by classic Portuguese flavors, this creamy dessert brings together fresh citrus and a touch of sweetness. It's smooth, aromatic, and the perfect way to wrap up any meal. Dive in and enjoy a little taste of tradition!


Tips for Success

Ensure that the eggs are at room temperature before mixing. This helps them blend more smoothly with the other ingredients and contributes to a creamier texture in the pudding.

For an extra burst of flavor, zest the orange before juicing and add about 1 tablespoon of the zest to the mixture. This will enhance the citrus notes in your pudding.

Avoid overmixing the batter after adding the orange juice, as this can create a grainy texture. Mix just until combined to maintain a smooth consistency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I substitute condensed milk with another type of milk?

Yes, you can use evaporated milk or a combination of whole milk and sugar as a substitute, but keep in mind it will change the sweetness and texture of the pudding.

What is the best way to store leftovers of the orange pudding?

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Make sure to cover it well to prevent it from absorbing other smells in the fridge.

What should I do if my pudding didn't set properly after baking?

If your pudding does not set, it may need more time in the oven. Try baking it a little longer and check every 5-10 minutes. The center should be firm yet slightly jiggly.

Recommended Drink Pairings

  • Prosecco: The light bubbles and citrus notes complement the orange flavor in the pudding.
  • Orange Soda: This sweet and fizzy drink enhances the orange taste, making it a fun pairing.
  • Chai Tea: The warm spices in chai provide a nice contrast to the creamy texture of the pudding.
  • Coconut Water: Its subtle sweetness and refreshing quality balance the richness of the dessert.
  • Espresso: The bold coffee flavor contrasts with the sweetness, creating a delightful combination.

Raspa e sumo de duas laranjas
1 chávena de medida de ovos - são 8 ovos
1 chávena de leite
3/4 de chávena de açúcar
caramelo liquido q.b.

My grandmother made a toucinho do ceu > really decant slab of honey and cholesterol >18 eggs...I think your recipe is lacking on eggs, and using condensed milk makes it more of flan type. I copied the ingredients above from another site
Use the words " pudim de laranja" ou " toucinho do céu" to find a recipe that truly matches the name :D

This is not my recipe Philip, the author called it a pudding, so unfortunately I have to leave it as it is.

Indeed. It was boling water. After 45 minutes, and mind you, I splited the mix since my form was smaller, I bumped the temperature a bit > 400F, and finally got some golden brown. Ended looking more like a flan, just a tad denser. The orange flavor a plus, but I think it needs more egg, and more heat

Thanks for letting me know, the author's time did not make sense, using a Bundt type pan (with a hole in the center), it should be more like 60 minutes at 180C/350F. Please keep in mind that there is a slight difference from oven to oven, so it might take a little less or a little longer.

I have updated the recipe, sorry about the bad experience.

The recipe is off. Cooking times are not correct, and ended looking like a flan and not as showing in the picture

Phillip, did you preheat the water before baking it for 45 minutes?
