Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Silken tofu
- 4 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 120 milliliters Unsweetened plant-based milk
- 200 grams Fresh mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 pinch Salt
- 5 leaves Optional: fresh mint leaves, for garnish
Instructions
In a blender, combine the silken tofu, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cornstarch, plant-based milk, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.
Blend the mixture until completely smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides, if necessary.
Transfer the blended mixture to a saucepan and set it over medium heat.
Whisk the mixture constantly as it cooks, allowing it to thicken. This will take about 3-5 minutes. Once thickened to a custard-like consistency, remove it from the heat.
Pour the custard into individual serving dishes or ramekins and allow it to cool slightly before chilling in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
Before serving, top each custard with fresh mixed berries. Optionally, garnish with a few fresh mint leaves for added flavor and presentation.
Serve chilled and enjoy this creamy, vegan dessert!
