Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 cup of vegan condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons of lemon zest
  • 1/4 cup of cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder (for color, optional)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Vegan graham crackers or cookies (for garnish, optional)
  • Fresh berries (for garnish, optional)

Instructions:

  1. In a saucepan, combine the full-fat coconut milk, unsweetened almond milk, and vegan condensed milk over medium heat. Stir gently until well combined and heated through.
  2. Add the fresh lemon juice and lemon zest to the mixture, stirring continuously to incorporate the citrus flavors evenly.
  3. In a separate bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in a small amount of water to create a slurry. Slowly pour the slurry into the saucepan while whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
  4. Sprinkle in the turmeric powder for a vibrant yellow hue, if desired, and a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness.
  5. Continue cooking the pudding mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens to a smooth, custard-like consistency. This should take approximately 5-7 minutes.
  6. Once the pudding has thickened, remove it from the heat and allow it to cool slightly before transferring it to individual serving dishes or a large serving bowl.
  7. Cover the pudding with plastic wrap, ensuring that the wrap touches the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until set.
  8. Serve chilled, garnished with vegan graham crackers or cookies for added texture, and fresh berries for a burst of color and flavor.
