Pandan Pudding (Kanom piak poon)

pandan pudding

Kanom piak poon is a traditional thai dessert that heavily features the use of pandan leaves in order to color and flavor the pudding. Some places also include the addition of coconut ash to provide the puddings with a deep, dark color, but I’m partial to the bright green that pandan provides!

These puddings are actually really hard to find nowadays in the US (or maybe they’re just hard to find in my area) and I realized I had a bunch of leftover pandan leaves sitting in my fridge, so I decided to try my hand at these desserts!

The dessert itself isn’t much like a regular American pudding. Its thick to a point where you can pipe out and have it hold its shape. The insides are still incredibly silky smooth though and each bite is cock full of that amazing pandan flavor.

While these pandan puddings can be eaten as is, I added a recipe for a coconut sauce as well since I remember they’re usually topped with that and some toasted sesame seeds. They’re incredibly easy to portion out into small individual pieces, or can be left to set in a large container and then scooped out individually after chilling!

Pandan Pudding

  1. In a large bowl, pour in the rice flour, arrowroot starch, tapioca starch, palm sugar, granulated sugar, and salt
  2. Then pour in the water, coconut milk, pandan juice, and pandan extract
  3. Mix the entire mixture together until the liquid is smooth and there are no lumps (it is easiest to just mix with your hand in order to properly incorporate the palm sugar into the mixture)
  4. Pour the liquid mixture into a large pot and put over medium heat
  5. Continuously stir as you cook down the pudding and as it starts to thicken (remember to keep stirring so that nothing sticks to the bottom of the pot and burn)
  6. Keep stirring over medium heat until the mixture thickens to an almost sticky, pudding like consistency (~15 -20 minutes)
  7. Remove from heat and then allow the pudding to cool slightly in the pot
  8. Then fill a piping bag with the mixture and pipe out desired shape or scoop into individual serving cups
  9. Allow to cool at room temperature for at least an hour so that the pudding can set
  10. Pour some of the coconut sauce on top when ready to serve, then enjoy!
