Matcha Tofu Pudding

Matcha Tofu Pudding is a creamy and velvety vegan dessert that beautifully combines the earthy flavor of matcha with the smoothness of silken tofu. This delightful treat is not only indulgent but also packed with antioxidants and nutrients.

Ingredients

• Silken tofu - 300 grams

• Maple syrup - 3 tablespoons
• Coconut milk - 100 milliliters
• Vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a blender, combine the silken tofu, matcha powder, maple syrup, coconut milk, vanilla extract, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt.
2. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
3. In a small saucepan, heat the water over medium heat until it is warm, then slowly pour it into the blender while blending to ensure everything is well mixed.
