Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 12 servings

Ingredients

1 1/3 cups regular coconut milk
1 1/3 cups light coconut milk
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and finely grated
1/4 cup raisins, preferably golden
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch salt

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350F (175C). Lightly oil an 8-inch-square baking dish, place on a baking sheet with a rim, and set aside.

    Step 2

    In a large bowl, combine both coconut milks and sugar; stir until the sugar dissolves. Add the remaining ingredients and stir well to combine. Pour into the prepared baking dish and carefully transfer on the baking sheet to the center of the oven. Bake 1 hour. Reduce temperature to 250F (120C) and bake 1 more hour, or until a golden crust forms and a knife inserted halfway from the center comes out almost clean. Let cool about 30 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature (the pudding will firm as it cools). Or cover and refrigerate completely cooled pudding up to 3 days and serve chilled.
