Enjoy the rich flavors and creamy texture of Turkish milk pudding, also known as Kazan dibi, a traditional dessert made with minimal ingredients that has been eaten for centuries. This dessert features a smooth, custard-like base.
In a large saucepan set to medium heat, place the butter to melt. Whisk in the flour and saute for 2-3 minutes. The butter will begin to deepen in color.
Stir in the milk and sugar and continue cooking and stirring until thickened. Turn heat to low and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the vanilla and pour into serving bowls. Garnish with cinnamon and fresh fruit if desired.
Notes
Store leftover pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for several days.
