Kitchen Notes
If you can’t find the sugar-free cheesecake instant pudding, use sugar-free lemon or vanilla pudding.
While this recipe does produce two loaves of bread, they are smaller than the standard recipe loaves and do require a shorter bake time. You can also dress this up with some poppy seeds or increase the amount of lemon rind or extract to boost the lemony flavor.
What is cheesecake instant pudding? We don’t have this in the UK. What can I substitute in its place?
Any suggestions welcome.
I hope you got a reply before now, but I would suggest whatever sugar-free pudding you have that would compliment the lemon flavor, probably vanilla or french vanilla or lemon. I think in the U.S. people just *like* the cheesecake flavor best or that is what the person who created this recipe used. HTH.
I have used vanilla or French Vanilla instant pudding instead of the cheesecake flavor and it worked fine.
Hi Sue! Yes, as the other posters mentioned, any complementary pudding flavor will work, including your basic vanilla (and we have homemade pudding recipes in the Recipe Box, too). Enjoy!
