Ingredients

• 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk
• 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Sweetener (e.g., stevia, sucralose)
• 1 teaspoon Almond extract
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 cup Slivered almonds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the almond milk and cornstarch until the mixture is smooth and the cornstarch is completely dissolved.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stirring constantly, heat the mixture until it begins to thicken, approximately 5-7 minutes.

Step 3

Once the mixture starts to thicken, reduce the heat to low. Continue stirring to avoid any lumps.

Step 4

Add the sweetener, almond extract, vanilla extract, and salt to the mixture. Stir well until all ingredients are fully incorporated, and the pudding is smooth.

Step 5

Cook the pudding on low heat for an additional 3-5 minutes, continuing to stir constantly, until the pudding reaches the desired thickness.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the pudding cool slightly.

Step 7

Divide the pudding evenly among four serving dishes or ramekins.

Step 8

If desired, top each serving with slivered almonds for added texture and flavor.

Step 9

Let the pudding cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least one hour or until fully chilled.

Step 10

Serve the pudding cold and enjoy your low-fat almond treat!
