Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 ml Coconut milk
- 250 ml Almond milk
- 150 g Brown sugar
- 40 g Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar and 2 tablespoons of water. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until sugar dissolves and starts to bubble into a caramel.
Carefully add the coconut milk and almond milk to the caramel. Stir continuously until the sugar dissolves completely into the milk mixture, about 3-5 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining tablespoon of water with the cornstarch to form a slurry.
Add the slurry to the saucepan, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Reduce the heat to low.
Continue to stir the mixture for about 5-7 minutes, or until it begins to thicken to a pudding-like consistency.
Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract, maple syrup, and salt.
Pour the pudding into serving cups or ramekins. Allow them to cool at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Refrigerate the pudding for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.
Serve chilled, optionally garnish with a sprinkle of sea salt or a drizzle of extra maple syrup.
