Mango Pudding
My Mango Pudding is a dream for summer. If you are looking for a dessert that's both impressive and surprisingly easy to make. This delightful treat requires just a handful of ingredients and minimal effort to create a creamy, dreamy pudding that will transport you to a tropical paradise. It's the perfect make-ahead dessert for any occasion, or a little taste of luxury any day of the week.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ tablespoons Unflavored gelatin
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 ½ tablespoons Granulated sugar
- ½ cup Coconut milk
- 3 cups Mango chunks, fresh or frozen, about 12 ounces
Instructions
- Add the gelatin and water to a small bowl. Whisk until combined and let the mixture sit for 2 to 3 minutes to bloom.
- If using fresh mango, puree it in a blender or food processor until smooth. If using frozen mango, no additional preparation is needed.
- Whisk the sugar and coconut milk into the bloomed gelatin until combined.
- Stir in the mango puree or frozen mango.
- Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan and place over medium-low heat.
- Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, whisking frequently, until the gelatin is fully dissolved and the mango is softened and smooth.
- Remove from the heat and divide the mixture evenly among four serving dishes.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until fully set.
- Serve chilled.
Christina's Notes
Mangoes vary in sweetness. Taste the mango before mixing and adjust the sugar if needed. Very ripe mangoes may require less sugar.
A small squeeze of lime juice can brighten the mango flavor and balance the sweetness.
For extra flavor, add a drop of vanilla extract or a pinch of cardamom to the mixture before cooking.
Allow enough chilling time for the pudding to fully set. The texture should be firm yet creamy.
Top with diced mango, toasted coconut, whipped cream, or fresh mint before serving.
Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
This dessert is ideal for making a day ahead since the flavor and texture improve after chilling overnight.
Freezing is not recommended, as the texture can become grainy after thawing.
