Question: Can you leave the sugar out of this recipe or use Splenda instead?
Bonsoir pour 1/2 tasse de mélange en poudre de pouding, ont ajoute combien de tasse de lait pour préparer une pouding?
Merci
Bonjour lorsque vous écrivez ½ tasse de mélange sec (par boîte de pouding). Faut le mélanger avec du lait. Mais combien de tasse de lait?
J’aimerais l’essayer pour donner les enfants…… Merci
This is not instant putting,
You do not have to heat this pudding? Just add milk, stir and chill? What if I wanted to make different flavors, such as cotton candy or orange? Do you know how I can make or use a dry flavored ingredient so I can store dry?
Hi Elisa! This pudding recipe is to be used as a dry swap for commercial pudding in Amish Friendship Bread recipes, so I’m afraid I don’t have an answer to your questions. Here’s a link we found to some dry pudding recipes — http://www.budget101.com/frugal/pudding-mixes-196/. I can’t say for sure but I’d expect you’d have a shorter shelf life with any mix that has any liquid ingredients added to it, so I’d keep an eye on that. Good luck!
There are 2 size boxes of instant pudding mix … is the measurement of 1/2 cup to replace the 3.something size or the 5.something size??? I’m thinking it is for the smaller one.
In case anyone’s interested in making a smaller batch, here are the numbers for 1/4 recipe. 🙂
5/8 cup dry milk powder
1 1/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
5/8 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
btw, 5/8 cup = 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons
Made friendship bread with this, yum!
Ho letto il libro tutto d’un fiato…
meraviglioso! lezioni di vita vera…
mi sono commossa… sono curiosa di provare a preparare il lievito madre e a dividerlo con amici e famiglia…
che bello! già sento il profumo in cucina!

What would you do to make instant vanilla pudding?
So…. Would I just cut down the cocoa to make Milk chocolate pudding?? If so about how much would I cut down to?
How long is this mix good for? It sounds interesting. Can you make it into regular actual pudding? And if yes how much to how much milk? I was thinking of making up a batch to have for bread but I know someone in the house will hear “Chocolate Pudding Mix” and want chocolate pudding 🙂
Hi Cindy! If you store the pudding mix in an airtight container in a cool, dry place or refrigerator, it should keep well for at least two weeks. If you want to make “actual” pudding, mix 2/3 cup dry pudding to 2 cups milk. Heat and stir constantly to boiling, then cool and serve. Hope you enjoy the bread and the pudding!
This is awesome, thank you so much for the recipe! I’m lactose intolerant so I use dry powder creamer instead of the milk powder & it works well.
Since I’m also diabetic, I’m going to try substituting some of the sugar with Splenda. If anyone has already done this, I’d greatly appreciate hearing from you using my personal email address. Thanks so much, Lynn
Have you tried Truvia? It is natural sweetener, better for you and has a better taste, at least for us. Their website is http://www.truvia.com and phone 866-853-6077. Distributed by: Cargill, Incorporated _ Minneapolis, MN 55440.

I just made banana bread using splenda and homemade vanilla pudding. It is incredibly tender. I sampled a crumb and it tasted sweeter than I remember it tasting with regular sugar. I also have some sourdough bread rising. Amxious to see how that turns out.
Is there a way to make ‘vanilla’ or other flavors? Thank you
Hi Judy! Yes, we have a vanilla version here:
