TEMBLEQUE (PUERTO RICAN COCONUT PUDDING)



Tembleque (Puerto Rican Coconut Pudding) image

One of the most popular desserts in Puerto Rico, tembleque gets its name from the Spanish word for "tremble," which refers to the wiggly, jiggly texture of this molded pudding. Made with coconut milk thickened with cornstarch, the pudding is both vegan and gluten-free, making it a perfect choice when entertaining family and friends.

Time 4h35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Nonstick baking spray or coconut oil, for greasing
4 cups canned unsweetened coconut milk (full-fat, please!)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2/3 cup vegan granulated sugar
1/2 cup cornstarch
Ground cinnamon, for serving

Steps:

  • Grease eight 4-ounce molds or one large 4-cup mold (you can use ramekins, baking pans, custard cups, etc.) with a spritz of baking spray or coconut oil. Stir together the coconut milk, salt and sugar and stir in a medium saucepan over medium-high until the sugar dissolves.
  • Transfer 1 cup of the warm coconut milk to a medium bowl. Whisk in the cornstarch to create a smooth slurry. Slowly whisk the slurry back into the pan and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened and pudding-like, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared molds and let cool at room temperature for 20 minutes before loosely covering with plastic wrap and refrigerating.
  • Chill until set, at least 4 hours. To serve, run a thin wet knife along the edges of the molds, then carefully invert onto a plate or plates. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon if desired.

Tips:

  • Use Fresh Coconut: Fresh coconut milk and cream give the pudding a richer flavor and texture compared to canned or powdered alternatives.
  • Chill Mixture Thoroughly: Chilling the coconut mixture before churning helps the pudding set properly and gives it a smooth, creamy consistency.
  • Avoid Over-Churning: Over-churning the mixture can result in a grainy texture. Churn the mixture just until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
  • Freeze for Firmer Texture: For a firmer texture, transfer the churned pudding to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.
  • Garnish and Serve: Garnish the pudding with toasted coconut flakes, fresh berries, or chopped nuts for an extra touch of flavor and texture.
