Mango Coconut Pudding Recipe — A sweet and creamy fruit filled mango coconut pudding perfect for summer to fall. This recipe is bound to impress your guests!
Ok. I mayyyy have a bit of an obsession with fruit and coconut. I don’t know what it is. But creamy smooth coconut combined with the juicy bright flavor of fruit is pretty much a winning combination.
I, Nanette recently went to a Thai restaurant where I had the classic mango sticky rice dessert, which inspired me to remix it into light mango coconut pudding where tropical mango is paired with a delicate vanilla-infused coconut.
It’s the perfect dessert for sitting out on the patio on those hot summer nights!
