Ingredients
 
 

  • 120ml full fat coconut milk see notes
  • 2 tsp cornflour
  • 1/2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla paste
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar for the topping

Instructions
 

  • Add the coconut milk to a small saucepan, then mix in the cornflour.
  • Add the sugar and vanilla and cook over a medium heat until the mixture starts to bubble and thickens a little.
  • Pour into a ramekin and leave to cool before transferring into the fridge to chill for 1-2 hours.
  • When ready to serve, sprinkle 1 tsp of sugar on top and use a blow torch to caramelise the sugar.
  • Alternatively, you can place under a very hot grill until caramelised.

Notes

You can use oat cream or soy cream instead. You can also use oat/almond milk, but you may need to add an extra tsp of cornflour otherwise it will be too runny.
If you don’t have a blow torch, you can caramelise the sugar under a very hot grill for a few minutes. The results won’t be as good, but it will still be just as tasty!
Serve straight away, if you leave it too long the sugar starts to melt and you’ll loose the crunchy topping.
