Ingredients

  • 1 cup mashed banana about 2 large bananas
  • 1 ½ cups canned coconut milk
  • 3 tbsp tapioca flour or arrowroot powder
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. First, add peeled bananas to a blender. Blend until smooth.
  2. In a bowl, mix together canned coconut milk and tapioca flour until completely smooth and no clumps remain.
  3. Add blended banana, milk mixture, vanilla extract and maple syrup to a skillet over low heat.
  4. Whisk consistently for 8 to 10 minutes, or until banana pudding begins to thicken. Depending on heat level, it may thicken after only 5 minutes.
  5. Once thickened, place pudding in a bowl. Serve warm immediately or refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to overnight.
  6. Finally, once pudding has thickened to your liking, serve!

Notes

  • I highly recommend blending the bananas for a smoother and creamier result.  Mashed bananas will lead to lumpy pudding.
  • Shake canned coconut milk before opening.  Then, pour into measuring cup before use.
  • Whisk constantly to prevent burning.
  • Pudding may thicken as quickly as 5 minutes depending on heat level and strength of stovetop.
  • Once pudding has thickened, either serve immediately warm or refrigerate for a thicker result.
  • Honey can be used in place of maple syrup for a non Vegan option.
  • This pudding is neutral in color.
  • See above for ways to achieve a more yellow color.
  • Store pudding in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
