TAPIOCA FRUIT PUDDING

This recipe is a family favorite. It always gets eaten really quickly, and it doesn't seem to matter if the recipe is doubled or even tripled. It takes some planning ahead and effort, but it is well worth it. Preparation time does not include soaking or cooling in refrigerator.

2 cups grapes, sliced in half
2 bananas, sliced
1/2 pint whipping cream

Steps:

EASY FRUIT JUICE TAPIOCA PUDDING



Easy Fruit Juice Tapioca Pudding image

This is my version of the fruit juice pudding recipe on the Minute Tapioca box. I omitted the sugar from the original recipe which I think is rather unnecessary. Topping the pudding with corn flakes adds a great crunch. Also add chopped nuts and dried fruit if you like. Note: Prep. time includes time taken for cooling.

Time 30m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 1/4 teaspoons minute tapioca
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup pure unsweetened apple juice or 1/2 cup unsweetened orange juice (or any other fruit juice)
1/2 cup corn flakes
sliced fruit, for topping (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix tapioca, salt and fruit juice in a small saucepan.
  • Let it stand for 5 minutes.
  • Cook on medium heat stirring constantly until mixture comes to a full boil.
  • Remove from heat (The pudding thickens as it cools).
  • Cool 20 minutes, and stir.
  • Top with corn flakes and fresh fruit for a yummy, healthy snack.
  • You can have this warm or chilled-- I like it chilled!

Tips:

  • Use fresh fruit for the best flavor. If you're using frozen fruit, thaw it completely before using.
  • Don't overcook the tapioca pearls. They should be cooked until they're translucent and have a slight bite to them.
  • Let the pudding cool completely before serving. This will allow it to thicken and set properly.
  • Serve the pudding with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include whipped cream, fruit, and nuts.

Conclusion:

Fruit on the bottom tapioca pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that's perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up fresh fruit, and it's also a fun and festive treat for parties and gatherings. With its creamy texture, sweet flavor, and colorful fruit, this pudding is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
