Step 6: Transfer the corn mixture into the prepared pan and sprinkle the top with cheese.
Step 7: Combine the rest of the cracker crumbs and butter, then sprinkle on top.
Step 8: Dust the top with a bit of paprika.
Step 9: Place inside the preheated oven and bake for about 45 to 50 minutes or until puffed, golden brown, and the edges are crisp with a nit loose in the centre.
Step 10: Once done, remove the pudding from the oven and serve quickly. Enjoy!
