This delicious vegan banana pudding was created as a dessert for “the Forest Food Kitchen” restaurant at my resort, Ecologic Thailand. We only use homegrown and local produce and make our own coconut milk. It is incredible to be able to walk out of your house and just pick a bunch of bananas from a tree or a coconut and grade it to make milk! Fresh and pure nature! Delicious! I am blessed and lucky to be able to do that. Here is a Nutritious, Delicious comfort food recipe (which is as delicious with store bought products!)!
