- Blend: Add the salt, sugar, vanilla extract, plant milk, and arrowroot powder to a high speed blender. Blend until smooth for about 15 to 30 seconds.

Notes
- Note 1: We preferred unsweetened almond milk, but soy milk or oat milk will also work! If using a fattier plant, like coconut milk, you may need to alter the amount of oil you use.
- Note 2: This adds a nice richness to the pudding.
- Note 3: Both the vanilla extract and vanilla bean paste will work the same, but we find the vanilla bean paste is a bit more flavorful.
- Note 4: Most granulated sugars should work, like coconut sugar or brown sugar. You could also try using maple syrup!
- Note 5: Did your pudding turn out a little gloopy? Just mix it up with a spoon before serving and it should be good. It just comes with the territory when not using additives.
- Note 6: Did your pudding turn out too thick? All you have to do is vigorously whisk in a few tablespoons of whichever non-dairy milk you used (we used almond milk) and it will be perfect!
