FAQs:
Q: Can I use non-dairy milk?
A: Yes, almond or oat milk can work, but the pudding may be slightly less creamy. Choose unsweetened varieties and consider adding an extra tablespoon of cornstarch to help it set.
Q: Can I use store-bought pudding?
A: Absolutely. If you’re short on time, use your favorite high-quality vanilla pudding and just make the crumble yourself for a fast dessert upgrade.
Q: Can I make this ahead of time?
A: Yes! You can prepare the pudding a day in advance. Just keep the crumble separate until you’re ready to serve.
Q: What can I substitute for crackers?
A: Graham crackers, pretzels, or crushed shortbread cookies all make excellent alternatives.
