How to make mango pudding
Step 1. Prepare gelatin. In a microwavable cup, combine the gelatin powder and water together. Whisk well immediately with a fork, then let sit for 5 minutes. It'll start to look spongy, absorbing the liquid.
Step 2. Make pudding base. While letting the gelatin sit, combine the pureed mango, almond milk, and sugar together in a saucepan. Stir well until the sugar has completely dissolved. Do not let it boil.
Step 3. Melt gelatin. Microwave the gelatin + water mix (from step 1) at 20 seconds increments until the gelatin has completely dissolved. Alternatively, melt in a double boiler, stirring constantly. Do not let the mix boil as it weakens gelatin's setting power.
Step 4. Add gelatin. Pour the dissolved gelatin mix into the pudding base, stir well.
Step 5. Chill. Pour the mix into cups and refrigerate for 4 hours or more.
Optional: top with dairy free whipped cream, ice cream, or toppings of your choice.
