It’s a delightful dessert that can be enjoyed on its own or as part of a larger dessert spread. Whether you’re serving guests or indulging yourself, this almond coconut pudding is a simple yet elegant choice that will leave everyone asking for more.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups almond milk
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Toasted coconut flakes (for garnish, optional)
- Sliced almonds (for garnish, optional)
Instructions:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the almond milk, coconut cream, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently until the sugar has completely dissolved and the mixture is warm, but not boiling.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the cornstarch with a few tablespoons of cold water to create a slurry. Once the almond and coconut mixture is warm, gradually whisk in the cornstarch slurry to thicken the pudding. Continue to cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring constantly until the pudding has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the pudding to cool slightly before transferring it into individual serving bowls or cups.
- Refrigerate the pudding for at least 2 hours to allow it to set completely. If you prefer a warmer dessert, you can serve it right away, but chilling enhances the flavors and texture.
- Before serving, garnish the pudding with toasted coconut flakes and sliced almonds for an added crunch and flavor. Enjoy your delicious almond coconut pudding!
Extra Tips:
For a richer flavor, consider using full-fat coconut milk instead of coconut cream. You can also enhance the pudding with spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for a warm undertone.
If you want to make this dessert even more indulgent, a drizzle of chocolate sauce or a dollop of whipped cream on top can elevate its appeal.
Don’t hesitate to experiment with different toppings and flavors to make it your own!
