Ingredients
For the pudding:
- ½ cup raisins
- ½ cup spiced rum
- ½ cup Organic Sugar
- ¼ cup plus 1 Tbsp corn starch
- 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/16 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg or ⅛ teaspoon if using pre-ground
- 3 cups unsweetened non-dairy milk, such as soy, almond, or coconut
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the pecans:
- 1 ½ cups raw pecans (makes enough to have leftovers!)
- 1 tablespoon vegan butter, melted, optional
- 2 tablespoon maple syrup
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Soak the raisins:
- Combine the raisins and rum in a small bowl and soak for at least a few hours, preferably overnight.
Make the pudding:
- First, drain the raisins and set aside (reserve the rum for a delicious cocktail). Combine the sugar, corn starch, cinnamon and nutmeg in a sauce pan. Over medium-low heat gradually stir in the milk. Cook for about one minute to bring up to temp. Stirring frequently, reduce heat to low and cook until thickened, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in the vanilla and about ⅔ of the raisins, reserving some for garnish. Pour into a quart-size dish or 2 to 4 smaller, individual serving bowls (makes 3 cups of pudding). Refrigerate uncovered until firm, 2 to 3 hours.
Make the Candied Pecans:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Spread the pecans on the pan. In a small mug, combine the butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt. Pour mixture over the pecans and mix well. Spread pecans in a single layer and bake 10 minutes. Remove from oven, stir, and bake an additional 10 minutes. Allow to cool on the pan.
- Serve with candied pecans, remaining raisins, and coconut whipped cream, if desired.
Notes
- If you're not into rum or raisins, feel free to omit them. The spiced pudding is delicious on its own.
- You will have extra candied pecans (hooray)! Nutrition for the pudding was calculated using ¼ of the full batch of pecans (or 1/16 per person).
- Store pudding in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
