  3. Assemble the Dessert:

    • Divide the lemon pudding evenly among serving dishes.

  • Swap blueberries for other berries like raspberries, strawberries, or blackberries for a variation.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute coconut milk and coconut cream.
  • Use honey or maple syrup instead of sugar for a natural sweetener.
