This recipe was first created by a woman who was determined to enjoy delicious desserts while sticking to her low-histamine diet. She had a great love for traditional vanilla pudding, but most commercial puddings and mixes contained ingredients that she needed to avoid. Inspired by her dietary needs and her love for exotic flavors, she experimented with coconut milk and real vanilla and created this delightful coconut and vanilla pudding.
Coconut and Vanilla Pudding is an excellent dessert for a low histamine diet. It avoids high histamine and histamine liberating foods, including dairy products, artificial flavorings, and processed sugars. Instead, it uses natural, low-histamine ingredients such as coconut milk, honey, and pure vanilla. The result is a dessert that is satisfying, delicious, and most importantly, low in histamine.

Use full-fat coconut milk for this recipe for the creamiest texture. Make sure to choose a brand that does not add any thickeners or other additives that could potentially be a source of histamine.
If you're strictly vegetarian or vegan, you could use agar-agar in place of gelatin. But keep in mind that the texture might differ slightly.
Using pure vanilla extract or even a fresh vanilla bean can create a deeper, richer flavor compared to artificial vanilla flavoring.
Although this pudding is absolutely delicious on its own, you can add fresh low-histamine fruits like blueberries or kiwi as toppings for an extra burst of freshness and flavor.
Remember that everyone's tolerance to histamine can be different, so it's important to pay attention to your body and adjust your diet accordingly. Always discuss dietary changes with a healthcare professional.
