2/3 + 1/3 cup plant-based milk (280g total)

1 cup (250g) canned coconut milk (not refrigerated) 

3 tbsp (25g) cornstarch

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/8 tsp turmeric for color (optional)

1/3 cup (70g) granulated sugar 

Assembly:

2 medium bananas

2/3 cup vegan whipped cream 

About 15-20 vanilla wafer cookies

Instructions

  1. Whisk 2/3 cup of plant milk of your choice with 1 cup of canned coconut milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and turmeric in a saucepan. 
  2. In a separate cup, whisk together 1/3 cup of plant milk with 3 tbsp of cornstarch and set aside.
  3. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the ingredients to a boil, while whisking frequently.
  4. Then, remove the saucepan from heat and whisk in the plant milk and cornstarch mixture from earlier. 
  5. Return the saucepan to the heat and continuously whisk until the mixture thickens and starts to boil again.
  6. Once it thickens, take the pudding off the heat, allow it to cool at room temperature for a few minutes, and then refrigerate until well chilled. 
  7. Now, while the pudding is setting, slice the bananas and crumble the cookies in a sealed plastic bag. 
  8. For assembly, build the layers by alternating between pudding, banana slices, and then the cookies crumbles.
  9. Make as many layers as you would like or your container(s) will allow.
