So it’s Christmas Eve!! Just enough time to put up another holiday themed recipe. Cringe. Today I come bearing the gift of my Vegan Gingerbread Pudding Pots. This is a dessert you can whip up in under half an hour and have ready to serve after just a few short hours of chilling. Perfect for lazy dogs like myself who do everything last minute!
My Gingerbread Pudding Pots involve no cooking whatsoever, which is awesome when you’ve probably already got a sh*t ton of Christmas cooking to do. All you need is a blender and you’re ready to go.
I blend up Cashews, Soy/Almond Milk, Golden Syrup, Molasses, Ground Ginger, Ground Cinnamon, Ground Cloves, Vanilla Bean, Sea Salt, and Coconut Oil to make my pudding mixture. All the classic flavours you would find in a traditional Gingerbread Cookie recipe, doh! Oh, and don’t go substituting Agave Nectar or Maple Syrup for the Golden Syrup. Just freaking don’t, okay?
I also crush some vegan Gingernut Cookies and sprinkle some on the bottom of my pudding cups before filling them with Gingerbread Pudding. It’s all about the fu*king texture, people. And as if that wasn’t enough, the whole thing is finally crowned with a dollop of Whipped Coconut Cream, more biscuit crumbs and a drizzle of Golden Syrup.
Sounds good, tastes good, easy to make, what the f*ck are you waiting for?!? You probably have all the ingredients that you need to make this at home already as well, so get cracking! Scroll down to grab the full recipe for my spicy, creamy, Vegan Gingerbread Pudding Pots. See you next year!
Gingerbread Pudding
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups Raw Cashews
- 1 1/2 cups Almond Milk
- 1/2 cup Golden Syrup
- 1/3 cup Coconut Oil Melted, refined variety as it has a neutral taste
- 1/2 Vanilla Pod
- 1/4 teaspoon Sea Salt
- 1/2 tablespoon Ground Ginger
- 1/2 tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon Ground Cloves
- 1/2 tablespoon Molasses
- 6-8 Gingernut Cookies Vegan, crushed with a rolling pin
- 1 14 oz can Coconut Milk chilled overnight
- 1 tablespoon Golden Syrup
Instructions
- Prepare Gingerbread Pudding by blending all ingredients in a high speed blender until smooth. This may take a few minutes and require you to scrape the sides of the blender down occasionally as the pudding mixture is thick.
- Meanwhile, scatter crushed Gingernut Cookies into the bottom of dessert cups or whatever vessel you are serving your pudding in.
- Once pudding mixture has blended smooth, transfer to cookie filled dessert cups, smoothen out and allow to set in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours or till cold and thickened.
- Just before serving, prepare Whipped Coconut Topping.
- Open your can of chilled coconut milk and scoop out solidified coconut fat. Use leftover liquid coconut milk/water for a soup or smoothie later on.
- Transfer coconut fat to a bowl with Golden Syrup. With electric beaters, whip until coconut fat is fluffy and resembles whipped cream (a few minutes of whipping is all you need).
- Dollop whipped topping on chilled puddings, and drizzle with more Golden Syrup before scattering more crushed Gingernut Cookies on top.
