Ingredients
- 400 ml Coconut milk
- 200 ml Pineapple juice
- 75 grams Granulated sugar
- 25 grams Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 120 grams Crushed pineapple (drained)
- 30 grams Shredded coconut (unsweetened)
- 0 Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- 0 Maraschino cherries (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, pineapple juice, and granulated sugar. Whisk until the sugar has dissolved.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 3 tablespoons of water to create a smooth slurry.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the coconut milk mixture to a gentle simmer.
Step 4
Gradually whisk the cornstarch slurry into the saucepan, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
Step 5
Continue to cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens to a pudding-like consistency (about 5-7 minutes).
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, crushed pineapple, and shredded coconut.
Step 7
Pour the pudding into individual serving dishes or a large bowl. Cover the surface of the pudding with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming.
Step 8
Allow the pudding to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to fully set.
Step 9
Before serving, garnish with whipped cream and maraschino cherries, if desired. Enjoy your tropical dessert!
