SO HOW'D IT GO?
If you like a bowl of nubbly slime with the consistency of industrial glue and no detectable flavor whatsoever and bearing no resemblance to pudding, let alone tapioca pudding, then I say go for it. Because that's what I got.
nice and gooey texture, like an elephant sneezed in my bowl.
Best description ever? I think so! ;D Definitely gonna have to try this now!
This recipe is fantastic!!!! yum!
I used vanilla almond milk (which is I think slightly sweetened already) and some agave - more like 1/4 cup. Very easy to make and I am so excited because I love tapioca and now I can make it vegan at home! yipee! Thanks!
just made this with some vanilla soy milk, and used a little under 1/4 cup of raw turbinado sugar. nice and gooey texture, like an elephant sneezed in my bowl.
I"ve made this several times and it's perfect - simple, easy, yummy. I've also tried it with coconut milk (half milk, half water, since it's so rich), and that gives it a yummy coconut flavour! Very rich - only need a small serving! ;)
I only added 2 c of rice milk as the tapioca seemed very runny. After cooking for 20 min and then cooling, it still wasn't as thick as I would have liked. I changed up the vanilla extract for almond extract making for a great combination with chocolate.
I missed tapioca pudding! This is delicious. I use 1 cup of coconut milk in replacement of a cup of the soymilk, I've also used agave (1/4 cup) instead of the sugar. Found this recipe a week ago and have already made it 3 times!
any way to replace the sugar with something healthier {example fruit juice,etc} without ruining the recipe?
I made this for my husband, as I am not truly a fan of tapioca. However I am eating it right now, still warm and it is good! A little to sweet for me, maybe because I used vanilla soy milk, however I know my husband won't mind the sweetness. Next time I will cut it down a little bit but this is definitely a recipe I will make again and and again.
I haven't had tapioca pudding since I was little! Our family is allergic to eggs, dairy and we are gluten intollerant. So what a treat to bring back some tapioca pudding!
I made it with small tri-coloured pearls, so it was very pretty. The only thing I will change for next time, is use 1/4 cup less sugar. Our soy milk is already so sweet, that I found this dessert too sweet for me. (although, not an issue according to the kids!)
