Pumpkin Coconut Tapioca


Are you sick of pumpkin yet?

Hope not.  (After this one, I still have another pumpkin recipe up my sleeve!)

My friend Natalie tried the original recipe for this pudding and loved it.  And she knows how much I enjoy coconut, so she was kind enough to share the link.

Not surprisingly, Mr. Vittles didn't like this (he's not a fan of the texture of tapioca), but he was getting quite a kick out of my attempts to photograph it.


I admit, it doesn't look all that appetizing.

But if you enjoy pumpkin and coconut, I'm pretty confident you will love this pudding.

If you are unsure of the spice, feel free to leave the cinnamon out (the original recipe did not have it).  I just thought it added a little something... reminds me of rice pudding!

Pumpkin Coconut Tapioca

  • 1 1/2 C. milk
  • 1/3 C. + 1 T. sugar
  • 1/3 C. small pearl tapioca (also called tapioca seeds - not quick-cook)
  • 13.5 oz. can of coconut milk
  • 1/2 C. canned organic pumpkin
  • 1/2 t. pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 t. ground cinnamon

Bring the milk and sugar to a simmer over medium heat. Add the tapioca and stir continuously for the first 5 minutes to prevent clumping. (Turn down heat if mixture starts to boil over).

Continue cooking, stirring frequently to prevent burning, until the tapioca pearls are almost completely translucent and the mixture is very thick, 10-15 minutes.

Add the coconut milk and turn down the heat to low. Continue cooking until the tapioca pearls are completely translucent.

When the tapioca is done, stir in the canned pumpkin, vanilla, and cinnamon.  Chill until firm.

  5. Huh. Is cooking tapioca really that simple?

    I watched my dad try to do it when I was a child and he BURNED EVERYTHING and I've been afraid of baking with tapioca ever since. This looks so good, it's time to get over my fear!

  11. Toto sites that specialize in Toto Sports are therefore mostly old private Toto sites. The first generation of Totosites has always focused on safety toys that focused on sports betting. 토토사이트 배팅사이트 도메인
