By , About.com Guide

Homemade vegan pudding can be simple and quick to make, with just a few simple ingredients. Try adding different flavorings to vary the flavor, or use vanilla to make a vegan vanilla pudding recipe. Scroll down for more homemade vegan pudding recipes to try. This recipe is nearly fat-free, but the soy milk does add a small amount of fat. It's still much healthier than full-fat pudding recipes, and it's cholesterol free as well.

Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 3 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 2 cups soy milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Preparation:

Mix the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a large saucepan. Gradually blend in the soy milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.

Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly until thickened. Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, stirring now and then.

Remove the pudding from the heat and add the vanilla. Let cool for ten minutes, stirring now and then. Pour the pudding into a large serving dish or individual serving dishes and chill until firm, about 2 to 3 hours.

Enjoy your homemade vegan pudding! Makes four servings.
