A creamy dairy-free dessert that is quick and easy to make.  This easy pudding recipe cooks up in 8-10 minutes.  This fall dessert is made using either almond or oat milk.   Additionally, this recipe gives alternative sweeteners.  Choose between sugar and sugar-free alternative sweeteners made from monk fruit and stevia.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 482 grams (2 Cups) Oat Milk or Almond Milk
  • 100 grams (1/2 cup) Pumpkin Puree such as Libby’s
  • 35 grams (4 tablespoons) Cornstarch
  • 50 grams (4 Tablespoons) Granulated OR
  • *40 grams (4 Tablespoons) Baking Sugar Alternative*
  • 4 grams (1/2 teaspoon) Kosher Salt
  • 2 grams (1/2 teaspoon) Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • Pinch Ground Nutmeg
  • A Pinch of Ground Clove

Instructions

  1. Whisk the cornstarch, sugar, spices and salt together in a 3 quart pan until well combined. * If making a sugar free pudding, replace the sugar with Baking Sugar Alternative.
  2. Gradually add the 2 cups of almond or oat milk to the dry ingredients and gently whisk together until it is throughly combined.   A few small lumps of cornstarch may remain, but they will eventually dissolve once the milk is heated. 
  3. Whisk pumpkin puree into milk mixture.
  4. Cook milk mixture over a medium-low heat, while constantly whisking or stirring.   After about 5 minutes, the mixture will begin to thicken.
  5. Continue to cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes, while stirring.  The pudding will continue to thicken. 
  6. Remove from heat and divide into 5 dessert bowls.   OR
  7. If using to create pudding parfaits, place pudding in a small container or bowl and gently push a piece of plastic wrap onto the surface of the pudding.  This will keep the pudding from developing a skin.
  8. Cool the pudding to room temperature.
  9. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

* For this recipe I use King Arthur’s Baking Sugar Alternative.  However store brands like Swerve may be replaced measure for measure.
