How to Make Coconut Millet Pudding

Heat 2 cups of coconut milk in a large saucepan over medium heat until gently simmering (do not boil).
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup millet, 1/4 cup honey (or maple syrup to taste), 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the simmering coconut milk, stirring well to combine.
Pour the mixture into a lightly oiled 1.5-quart oven-safe casserole dish.
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 60-75 minutes, or until the millet is tender and the pudding has thickened. Stir halfway through baking for even cooking.
Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or chilled, topped with your favorite preserves, fresh berries, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes.
