Ingredients

• 1 can (400 ml) Full-fat canned coconut milk
• 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 0.125 teaspoon Turmeric
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 4 teaspoons Granulated sugar (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, almond milk, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and turmeric. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and there are no lumps of cornstarch.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it begins to thicken and bubble. This should take 8-10 minutes.

Step 3

Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract for that fragrant flavor boost.

Step 4

Divide the custard mixture evenly among four 6-ounce ramekins. Smooth the tops with the back of a spoon if necessary.

Step 5

Allow the ramekins to cool at room temperature for about 15 minutes, then transfer them to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours, or until the custard is set.

Step 6

When ready to serve, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar evenly on top of each custard. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it melts and forms a golden, crunchy layer. Alternatively, you can broil the ramekins in your oven on high heat for 1-2 minutes, but watch closely to avoid burning.

Step 7

Let the caramelized topping cool for 1-2 minutes, then serve immediately and enjoy your creamy, plant-based dessert!
