Equipment

  • Microwave Safe Bowl
  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Water
  • 2 1/2 tsp Unflavored Gelatin (this is one 1/4 oz envelope of gelatin)
  • 4 Tbsp Sugar
  • 12 oz Mango cubes, fresh or frozen (defrost if frozen)
  • 1/2 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Milk (use regular, not light canned coconut milk for the most flavor)
  • Extra mango cubes, shredded coconut, or whipped cream (optional), for topping

Instructions

  • Pour water into a microwave-safe bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over the top and let it sit for 5 minutes to soften.
  • Transfer water and gelatin to the microwave and heat on high for 1 minute. Whisk in sugar and continue whisking until gelatin and sugar are both fully dissolved. (If they are not easily dissolving, microwave the mixture for another minute and then continue whisking. Be sure there are no unincorporated pieces of gelatin in this mixture or the pudding will have lumps.)
  • Combine gelatin mixture, mango, vanilla, and coconut milk in a blender and blend until smooth.
  • Place small bowls or glasses on a sheet pan (this will make it easier to transfer to the fridge). Fill with pudding. Tap the pan lightly on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
  • Refrigerate until pudding is set, at least 4 hours and up to 2 days ahead.
  • Top with mango cubes or whipped cream and serve.
