Lemon Pudding with Raspberry Sauce
by Allison
It’s been snowing all day in my corner of the world. The sky is grey and the snow is so thick that you can’t see more than a few feet in front of you when you step outdoors.
With a grey, blustery, wintry day ahead of me, I turn to the kitchen for warmth and I find a bag of lemons waiting for me. Lemons are in season right now, one of the only bright things produced in winter, which tells me that Mother Nature understands comfort food.
Surely She knew that a warm bowl of Lemon Pudding could bring a little ray of sunshine on a cold winter’s day.
On its own, the lemon pudding is tart, creamy, and delicious. With a heaping spoonful of Raspberry Sauce drizzled over the top of the citrus dessert, the lemon pudding is incredible.
I knew I stored away those freshly picked raspberries last fall for a good reason. Thawed today and elevated to a pudding topping, they made six more weeks of winter seem bearable after all.
