Easy Eggless Coffee Pudding: An incredibly simple yet delicious pudding that takes 4 ingredients and less than 15 minutes to prepare on the stovetop and a few hours to chill.

I like to serve this coffee pudding with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. You can also serve this with Air Fryer Cinnamon Toast.
Pudding is mostly a creamy, sweet dessert made of milk or fruit juice, sweetener, and a thickening agent such as egg, cornstarch, gelatin, rice, bread, chia seed, basil seed, or tapioca/sago.
This eggless coffee pudding is creamy, luscious, and not too sweet. Making this treat is so easy. Perfect for those times when you want a quick fix dessert.
This homemade coffee pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Ingredients You'll Need
- Milk: use full-fat whole milk. A lighter milk will make the pudding thin.
- Coffee: instant coffee
- Sweetener: granulated sugar
- Thickener: cornstarch/cornflour
- Water: room temperature, filtered water
Coffee Pudding Preparations Step by Step
- Take instant coffee powder in a bowl, add about 2 tablespoon of water to it. Mix well and keep the mixture aside.
- Similarly, take cornstarch in another bowl and add ¼ cup of water to it. Stir well and keep aside.
- Take milk In a saucepot and start boiling it on medium flame.
- Once the milk starts to boil add sugar and coffee mix. Stir and continue to boil over medium flame until the sugar dissolves completely.

- Turn off the flame and transfer the mixture to a bowl and cover with a plastic wrap. Then refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours.

Any way I can substitute a bit of heavy cream for the milk?
