BAKE at 350F
Brush butter or use non stick spray on tin/mold.
If using a regular pyrex bake for 45 minutes, if using muffin tins (WHICH I recommend if everyone loves crust and crispy walls) =D 40 minutes. If like really crispy bake 50 mins to 1 hour, it will be more than a cake than a pudding though =D
