Vegan Vanilla Pudding
Description
The Vegan Vanilla Pudding combines almond milk, cornstarch, and sugar, gently heated and whisked to avoid lumps and achieve a thick, creamy consistency. Vanilla extract enriches the flavor, while a pinch of salt balances sweetness. The careful cooking process ensures the pudding is smooth and velvety.
Its texture is reminiscent of classic pudding but made entirely without dairy or eggs, highlighting the almond milk's subtle nuttiness mixed with vanilla's warm notes. Chilling the pudding allows it to fully set and become pleasantly cool to serve.
Presented in individual cups and optionally topped with whipped cream and berries, this pudding provides a gentle, sweet finish suitable for vegan diets or those avoiding dairy.
Continuous whisking during cooking is essential for a lump-free, thick pudding, and chilling for at least an hour helps it set properly. Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for up to a week, though some separation may occur after a few days; gentle stirring can restore texture.
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond milk
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch salt if not included in your milk
- Whipped Cream for serving
- berries for serving
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the almond milk, cornstarch and sugar, and stir well to combine all the ingredients together.
- Start whisking lightly but constantly as the mixture heats. It’s important not to stop whisking in order to avoid any clumps. Once it reaches a simmer, turn down the heat to low and continue whisking.
- After whisking for about 5-7 minutes, the mixture will thicken like pudding. Stir in the vanilla extract and pinch of salt (if using), then divide the pudding equally into four cups or containers.
- Place the containers in the fridge for at least one hour to allow the pudding to set and chill.
- Served with whipped cream and berries, if desired, and enjoy cold.
Notes
- Whisk constantly during cooking to avoid lumps and develop a smooth texture.
- Allow pudding to chill in the fridge for a minimum of one hour to fully set before serving.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days; some separation may occur after 5 days.
