It's the baking it in the oven that transforms this semolina pudding into something NOT like school dinner semolina pudding at all. It couldn't be more different and is a million, trillion times better!

Ingredients
Here are the ingredients you need to make Strawberry Baked Semolina Pudding:
![strawberries, semolina, sugar, maple syrup, plant milk, vanilla, salt,](https://avirtualvegan.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Strawberry-Baked-Semolina-Pudding.jpg)
And a few ingredient notes:
- Semolina - You can buy coarse, fine, and superfine semolina. Any will work in this pudding. I personally prefer using coarse semolina so the texture of the pudding isn't super smooth. It's easy to find as it's commonly used when making pasta, pizza and bread. It will either be with the flours or the pasta at the grocery store. I've double-checked and in the U.S, Kroger, Publix, Walmart, Whole Foods, Amazon etc all carry it. Popular brands are Bob's Red Mill, Misko, Unico, and King Arthur. In Canada most stores sell it including Real Canadian Superstore, Save On Foods, and Walmart. In the UK and Europe it is even more common.
- Milk - Any variety such as almond milk, soy milk, cashew milk or store-bought oat milk (not homemade oat milk). I used unsweetened milk. If yours is sweetened you might want to reduce the sugar in the recipe just a touch.
- Strawberries - This is the perfect recipe to make when you have some fresh strawberries that are a little past their best. Frozen strawberries would work too but the pudding won't be as sweet and flavourful as it is when made with fresh strawberries.
Flavour Variations
You could get away with using any berries or stone fruits (fresh or frozen) in this recipe. No need to defrost them. Just throw them in as they are and add on an extra 3 or 4 minutes to the cooking time. Maybe rhubarb and apples too but they might need to be pre-cooked at least partially first.

Strawberry Baked Semolina Pudding
Author:WATCH HOW TO MAKE IT
Ingredients
- 1lb (454 grams) fresh strawberries
- 60mls (¼ cup) maple syrup , or ¼ cup of sugar but the fruit won't end up quite as saucy
- 1 cup (180 grams) semolina
- ⅓ cup (67 grams) cane or white granulated sugar , plus a little more for sprinkling
- ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract , or vanilla bean powder
- 2½ cups (600 ml) plant milk of choice
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Slice the strawberries and put them in the bottom of an oven proof dish. Pour over the maple syrup and stir to coat.
- In a small saucepan add the semolina, sugar, salt and vanilla. Gradually add the milk, stirring as you go to work out any lumps.
- Warm over a medium heat, whisking constantly. If you stop it will get lumpy. Keep whisking until it's really thick like wallpaper paste. It should take 7 to 8 minutes. Then remove from the heat.
- Immediately spoon the semolina pudding over the top of the strawberries. Don't wait as it will get too thick and difficult.
- Smooth the top out with a spatula, pushing it right up against the edges of the dishes to create a bit of a seal, then sprinkle over a generous amount of granulated sugar.
- Place in the hot oven and bake for 30 minutes. I recommend sitting it on a baking tray in case of any overflow.
- Once done either serve immediately or broil to make the top crustier.

I don't think Semonlina Pudding is well known in Canada or US... but from the look of this recipe, it should be! I am just imagining those flavors together and the texture, it's brilliant!
