Just Milk and Fruit! Delicious and Healthy Dessert Without Gelatin or Baking – Ready in 5 Minutes

Ingredients

• 2 cups milk (any kind – dairy or plant-based)
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons sugar or honey (adjust to taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
• 1 cup mixed fresh fruit (e.g., strawberries, bananas, mango, blueberries)
• Extra fruit for topping (optional)

Instructions

1. Prep the Milk Base:
   In a saucepan, whisk together milk, cornstarch, and sugar until smooth. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens into a smooth pudding (about 3–5 minutes).
2. Add Flavor:
   Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract if using.
3. Layer with Fruit:
   In serving cups or bowls, add a spoonful of chopped fruit, pour the warm milk mixture on top, and repeat layers as desired.
4. Chill or Serve Warm:
   You can serve it warm or refrigerate for 15–30 minutes if you prefer a cooler, firmer texture.
5. Top and Enjoy:
   Garnish with extra fruit on top before serving.
