Pudding

The other night around 10:30p.m, after watching Big Brother, I was hungry and really wanted pudding! So down to the kitchen I went and less than 30 minutes later, mom and I were eating homemade coconut almond pudding! Yes, I randomly decided to make pudding at 10 o'clock at night, and without using a recipe, we made some pretty kick-ass pudding! Here's what we did (in case you were wondering)...


Coconut Almond Pudding (vegan and gluten-free!!!)

1 can coconut milk
1 cup almond milk
A pinch of salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp maple syrup
Agave syrup
2-4 tbsp corn starch (can also use potato or tapioca, if so 1-2 tbsp should be sufficient)

1. In medium sized pot, whisk together coconut milk, almond milk, salt, vanilla and maple syrup.
2. Heat on high until it's almost boiling. 
3. Add agave syrup until desired sweetness. 
4. In small jar, mix together starch (starting with 2 tbsp, if using corn starch, if using potato or tapioca starch, you will probably need less so start with 1 tbsp) and small amount of almond milk (no more than 1/4 cup).
5. Slowly pour contents of jar into the pot while mixing. (If after 2-3 minutes, it has not thickened enough, repeat steps 4 and 5). 
6. Pour into bowls (approximately 3-4 servings) and chill if desired.

Bon appétit!
