Begin by preparing your cauliflower rice. If using fresh cauliflower, wash and cut into florets. Use a food processor to pulse until the cauliflower resembles rice grains.
In a medium saucepan, combine almond milk and coconut milk over medium heat. Stir occasionally and allow to heat until just about to simmer.
Add the cauliflower rice to the milk mixture and bring to a gentle simmer. Reduce heat to low and cover.
Cook for approximately 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower rice is tender and the mixture has thickened.
Stir in the vanilla extract, cinnamon, almond butter, and salt. Mix well until the almond butter is fully incorporated and the pudding has a creamy consistency.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the pudding cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm, or refrigerate for at least 2 hours if you prefer a chilled pudding.
Optionally, top with chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or fresh berries for added texture and flavor.
