COCONUT QUINOA PUDDING



Coconut Quinoa Pudding image

Quinoa is so versatile I've started eating it for dessert! Simmered with a bit of almond milk and brown sugar, the grains become tender and inviting, cozy and creamy. Rich coconut milk takes the whole thing to another level. Dressed up with a few crunchy extras, like toasted coconut and cocoa nibs, the simple dish turns into a satisfying dessert. And if you have any leftovers, it makes a pretty great breakfast, too. But what are the chances of that?

Categories     Dessert     Bake     Quinoa     Fall     Gourmet     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup quinoa (6 oz), picked over
6 cups water
3 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon fresh bread crumbs
1/4 cup slivered almonds or coarsely ground walnuts, or a mixture
1/4 cup dried currants or raisins
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
Accompaniment: honey or miel de chancaca* (brown sugar syrup)

Steps:

  • Wash quinoa in several changes of cold water in a bowl, rubbing grains between your palms, then drain well. Bring quinoa and 6 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until grains are translucent, 13 to 15 minutes. Drain well in a sieve.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, 3/4 cup sugar, and salt in a large bowl until just combined. Stir in quinoa, bread crumbs, nuts, and currants and pour into a buttered 9-inch square metal baking pan.
  • Stir together cinnamon and remaining tablespoon sugar and sprinkle over top of pudding. Bake in middle of oven until a knife inserted in center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
  • Available at Latino markets.

Tips:

  • Choose the right quinoa: For a creamy pudding, use white quinoa. For a chewier texture, use red or black quinoa.
  • Rinse the quinoa well before cooking: This will remove the bitter coating, called saponin, from the quinoa.
  • Cook according to package instructions: Quinoa typically takes about 15 minutes to cook.
  • Use a high-quality almond milk: The better the quality of almond milk, the better your pudding will taste.
  • Sweeten to taste: You can add honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar to sweeten your pudding, depending on your preference.
  • Add your favorite toppings: Top your pudding with fresh fruits, nuts, or seeds for a delicious and nutritious breakfast or snack.

Conclusion:

Quinoa pudding is a healthy and delicious breakfast or snack that can be made in just a few minutes. It is a great way to use up leftover quinoa, and it is also a good source of protein, fiber, and antioxidants. With its creamy texture and mild flavor, quinoa pudding is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
