Notes

Tip
If the pudding tends to soak up all the milk, just add in some more before serving and mix.
Tip
I like to serve this with some good quality Greek yoghurt.
Variation
If you don't have maple syrup, you can use golden syrup, honey or even a stevia to sweeten this recipe.
Storage
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until pudding sets.
