Ingredients:

– 115g dried chickpeas
– 1 teaspoon liquid vanilla extract
– 1 vanilla bean (optional)
– 1 teaspoon cinnamon
– 60g maple syrup or agave syrup
– Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chickpea Milk:
– The day before, soak the dried chickpeas in a large amount of cold water.
– On the same day, drain the soaked chickpeas and discard the water. Place the chickpeas in a blender with 710g of fresh water.
– Blend on high speed until a smooth, creamy chickpea milk is obtained.

2. Strain the Chickpea Milk:
– Place a thin colander over a saucepan and pour the blended chickpea milk through the colander.
– Use a spoon to press the remaining pulp in the colander, extracting as much milk as possible.
– Reserve the leftover chickpea pulp (okara) in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, or freeze for future use.

3. Prepare the Pudding:
– In the saucepan with the strained chickpea milk, add the liquid vanilla extract, cinnamon, maple syrup (or agave syrup), and a pinch of salt.
– If using a vanilla bean, cut it lengthwise and scrape out the seeds with the back of a knife. Add the seeds and the scraped bean to the saucepan.
– Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and whisk constantly until the mixture thickens to a creamy, béchamel-like texture.

4. Chill and Serve:
– Pour the pudding mixture into individual ramekins and allow it to cool to room temperature.
– Once cooled, transfer the ramekins to the refrigerator and let the pudding set for at least 2 hours before serving.
– Serve chilled and enjoy the creamy, vanilla-infused goodness of this homemade dessert.
