Vanilla coconut pudding
Nothing suits better for hazy early winter mornings than this vanilla coconut pudding with a hint of warm spices. It kisses you so softly that you can then handle anything the day brings.

VANILLA COCONUT PUDDING
Vanilla coconut pudding
1 of cans coconut milk (about 4 dl)
½ tsp bourbon-vanilla
¼ tsp ceylon cinnamon
¼ tsp cardamom
1 ½ – 2 tbsp organic gelatin powder/flakes/ + ½ dl cold water (or use agar agar)
2 tbsp raw honey or little bit vanilla stevia
Mix coconut milk, vanilla, cardamom and cinnamon in a saucepan and heat gently at the same time. Dissolve the gelatin into cold water in a cup and pour the mixture into a saucepan with other ingredients. If you want a vegan version, use agar agar. Warm the mixture on low heat for a couple of minutes (or bring to boil if you use agar agar) and allow the gelatin to melt into the liquid properly. Do not bring the mixture to boil when using gelatin. Stir in honey or other sweetener. Taste and add seasoning or sweetness if desired. Remove the pan from the heat and allow to cool down slightly. Pour the mixture into small bowls or cups. Slip in cinnamon sticks to give more taste. Put the pudding into the fridge to solidify for about one hour, or until the mixture is thick enough. Serve and enjoy as it is or, for example with banana slices!
Pst. You can control the thickness of the pudding with the amount of gelatin. I prefer a soft but solid pudding, so I added ½ tbls gelatin to 1.7 cups of coconut milk.

Can you use the LTE coconut milk? I'm assuming you mean the coconut milk in the can (like Thai Kitchen ).
Hi Virpi!rnrnI've never cooked with agar - but I love your recipes and I'm desperate to make this! How much did you use?rnrnAlso is it vanilla powder or extract?rnAnd do you prefer cardamom powder or cardamom seedsrnrnThe photos are seriously gorgeous
hi hannah!rnrnthank you for your comment!rnrni think 1 tbls of agar agar is enough. but it usually reads is the pagage how much you need. and notice that when you´re using agar agar you need to boil the water and agar agar so that you´ll get the gelatin-like effect.rnrnyou can use vanilla seeds or powder - or maybe the extract will do just fine also! mine cardamom was powdered, but you can also crunch the seeds by yourself. rnrnhave fun time cooking! :)
