This Creamy Lemon Meringue Pudding Recipe Is Like a Burst of Sunshine

You’ll be pleasantly surprised how easy it is to make this lemon pudding recipe. Technically it’s a one-bowl dessert since you mix the pudding ingredients in the same saucepan it cooks in. Combining the custard ingredients before applying heat allows everything to incorporate evenly and minimizes curdling and lumps. That said, straining the custard after cooking is a non-negotiable for a smooth, creamy pudding. Enjoy this ray of sunshine after it sets with a luscious dollop of whipped cream and delicate store-bought meringue kisses.
