⭐ Why you'll love this recipe

• This tapioca pudding recipe is easy to make.
• Only 5 ingredients.
• Ready in 15 minutes.
• This recipe is vegan, paleo and AIP compliant.

📖 Ingredient notes

• Tapioca. You can either use small tapioca pearls or tapioca granules. Tapioca pearls are like tiny white pearls. In France, they are harder to find than tapioca granules. Tapioca granules are not as beautiful as tapioca pearls when they are dry. They are more like coarse salt. Surprisingly, tapioca granules form little pearls once they hydrated. So in the end you can use either one of them and you will get the same result.
• Non dairy milk. If you are on AIP make sure to use either tigernut milk, coconut milk. If you use full fat coconut milk, make sure to mix it with water by using half the quantity of coconut milk and half the quantity of water. Why half water and half coconut milk? Because coconut milk is high fat. Which can be a bit "heavy" on the stomach and consequently can make you feel a little nauseous if you eat too much of it. If you are not on AIP, you can use almond milk or any other kind of non dairy milk you like.
• Carob powder. It is an AIP compliant cacao powder alternative. It is made from dried, roasted carob tree pods. It has a lighter flavor than cacao powder. It tastes a little bit like caramel. If you are not on AIP, feel free to use cacao powder.

🥣 Step by step instructions

1. Pour the non dairy milk or water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. If you use water, as you won’t get the flavor of the non dairy milk, you can compensate this by adding a little bit more of vanilla, cinnamon or carob.
2. Toss in the tapioca and stir continuously with a spoon.
3. Add in the carob powder, vanilla extract and maple syrup.
4. Let it cook on medium heat while stirring continuously until you get a pudding like consistency (about 10 minutes). As the pudding continues to thicken while it cools down, turn off the heat when the pudding is still quite liquid. Adjust the cooking time according to the consistency you like for your pudding.
5. Transfer this tapioca pudding to a bowl and voilà! Let it cool off before serving. Bon appétit!
