Description

This delightful no-bake dessert transforms humble tofu into a rich, creamy pudding that rivals traditional custards. By blending silken tofu with ripe banana and soy milk, you achieve an incredibly smooth texture that sets perfectly using agar agar. The combination of almond and vanilla extracts adds depth, while chopped almonds provide a satisfying crunch at the bottom of each serving. It is a nutritious, high-protein treat perfect for health-conscious bakers or anyone seeking a dairy-free alternative. Serve it chilled for a refreshing finish to a meal, or as a sweet afternoon snack. The natural sweetness from the fruit means less added sugar is needed, making it a guilt-free indulgence for the whole family.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Combine tofu, soy milk, banana, fructose, agar agar, almond extract, and vanilla extract in a blender.
  2. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Pour the blended mixture into a 4-quart pot.
  4. Heat the mixture over medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking and ensure the agar agar activates.
  5. Divide the chopped almonds among five 300ml dishes, creating a thin layer on the bottom of each.
  6. Pour the hot tofu mixture evenly over the almond layer in each dish.
  7. Refrigerate the dishes for at least 2 hours, or until the pudding has fully set.
  8. Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with cinnamon just before serving.
