Walnut pudding is usually made with milk, sugar, a thickener such as cornstarch, and chopped walnuts. Some recipes add egg yolks or vanilla, but the exact ingredients vary; check a packaged version for its specific recipe.
To make walnut pudding from scratch, whisk the cornstarch with cold milk, then heat it with the remaining milk and sugar while stirring until thick. Stir in chopped walnuts and vanilla, portion it into dishes, and chill before serving.
Yes, walnut pudding can be made without eggs. Cornstarch thickens the milk mixture on its own, so whisk it into cold milk first to prevent lumps, then cook while stirring until the pudding is thick.
Add most of the walnuts to walnut pudding after taking it off the heat, or sprinkle them on just before serving. Mixing them in early softens them as the pudding sits, while a fresh topping stays crunchier.
Walnut pudding is often runny because the starch mixture did not get hot enough to thicken or the starch was not properly mixed with cold liquid first. Keep stirring as it heats, and allow it to cool fully before judging its final texture.
No, walnut pudding and walnut custard are not always the same. Pudding is commonly thickened with starch, while custard often relies on eggs; recipes and naming vary, so the ingredient list tells you which kind you have.
Yes, you can make walnut pudding with unsweetened plant-based milk. The flavor and thickness may differ from a dairy version, so mix the starch thoroughly into the cold milk alternative and cook it while stirring.
Serve walnut pudding chilled in individual bowls, with chopped walnuts on top for extra texture. Cinnamon or a little grated chocolate also pairs well; add toppings just before serving so they do not soften in the pudding.
Keep walnut pudding covered in the refrigerator and eat it while it is fresh. A sealed container or wrap pressed against the surface helps prevent a skin from forming and stops the pudding from absorbing other food odors.
Walnut pudding can be frozen, but its milk-based texture may turn grainy or watery after thawing. Refrigerating it instead gives a smoother result; if you do freeze it, thaw it slowly in the refrigerator and stir before serving.

Walnut pudding is a soft, milk-based dessert made by cooking milk with a sweetener and a thickener, then mixing in chopped walnuts or scattering them on top. It is usually chilled in individual bowls before serving.
The smooth, creamy base contrasts with the walnuts’ earthy flavour and gentle crunch. It fits naturally after a meal, or as a small afternoon treat; in Turkey, milk puddings are commonly served cold at home. It offers some protein from the milk, while carbohydrates remain a notable part of its nutritional profile. For a less sweet version, reduce the added sugar and use a modest handful of walnuts.
