Ingredients
- Fresh mint leaves
- for garnish
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
- Water
- 1/4 cup
- Gelatin
- 2 teaspoons, unflavored
- Condensed milk
- 1/2 cup
- Coconut milk
- 1 cup
- Ripe mangoes
- 2 large, diced
Instructions
- In a blender, puree the diced mangoes until smooth, creating a vibrant mango puree.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk and condensed milk. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is warm, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- In a separate small bowl, dissolve the gelatin in the water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it blooms.
- Once the coconut milk mixture is warm, remove it from the heat and add the dissolved gelatin and vanilla extract. Stir until the gelatin is fully dissolved and the mixture is well combined.
- Allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes before gently folding in the mango puree until thoroughly blended.
- Divide the creamy mixture into individual serving glasses or bowls, filling them about three-quarters full.
- Refrigerate the puddings for at least 2 hours, or until fully set and firm to the touch.
- Before serving, garnish each pudding with fresh mint leaves for a pop of freshness and color.
Tips
- For an extra tropical twist, consider adding a splash of lime juice to the mango puree for a zesty contrast.
- Feel free to substitute fresh mangoes with other fruits like passion fruit or pineapple for a different flavor profile.
- If you prefer a dairy-free version, you can use sweetened coconut cream instead of condensed milk.
