🔥 Pro Tips for Perfect Tennessee Peach Pudding
🌟 Peach Tips: Use ripe but firm peaches for the best texture. If using frozen peaches, thaw and drain them first. For canned peaches, reduce the sugar in the batter to avoid making it too sweet.
🌟 Resting Time: Let the pudding sit for a few minutes after baking to allow it to set before serving.
🌟 Don’t Skip the Ice Cream: Trust us, the vanilla ice cream adds that perfect creamy touch! 🍦
