Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup cornstarch or arrowroot
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup pure honey
  • 1 1/2 cups lite coconut milk canned is preferred
  • 2 egg yolks slightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup coconut flakes unsweetened
  • 2 bananas slice into 1/2 inch pieces

Instructions

  • In a heavy saucepan, mix cornstarch and salt. Add honey and egg yolks to dry ingredients, gradually stir in milk until it's well combined. Cook over medium-low heat while stirring continuously to prevent sticking. Cook until desired thickness, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and add coconut and vanilla extract, stir. Layer pudding and sliced bananas, serve in individual dessert dishes and allow to cool about 15 minutes. This pudding is best served warm.

Notes

Tip: This recipe can either be used as a pudding or pie filling. For an eye-pleasing garnish, add a sprinkle of grated coconut atop individual serving dishes.
