My family LOVES homemade tapioca pudding. Â I don’t mind making it…but…”once in while” I get distracted and it gets burned. Â Today I tried a new recipe that tastes wonderful and eliminates most of chances of burning it because it is made in the crock pot! Â This was one of the those recipes I just had to try because making pudding in a crock pot just sounds like it wouldn’t work…but it did!
Here’s the recipe:
Put the following ingredients into your crock pot:
2 quarts milk
1 cup small pearl tapioca
1.5 cups sugar….you can use only 1 cup if you prefer
Cook these ingredients in your crock pot for 3 hours on high.
When the 3 hours are up, in a separate bowl mix together:
4 beaten eggs
2 t vanilla and 1/2 cup of the milk mixture from the crock pot.
Now whisk the egg mixture with the crock pot mixture together in the crock pot. Â Cook on high 20 more minutes. Â Chill and eat. Â It’s great alone, with whip cream or with fruit. Â Yummy!
A bonus for me is that it uses FOUR eggs….when you have chickens, you are always looking for egg recipes.  If you are teaching kiddos, this recipe is a great for them to watch and participate in.  It’s fun to see the liquid milk turn into a creamy pudding.
P.S. Â If you are here looking for the giveaway….here’s a link.

Awesome-thanks! My husband loves tapioca so I’ll have to try this.
Yeah! Having a bunch of family over for thanksgiving this year, and since “Grandpa” love tapioca pudding it’s great. We are also a glutenfree family so this is right up our alley. Thank you for sharing. Just found your blog today….and like a good book, I”m having trouble closing it up and returning to my “real” life. Have an awesome weekend!
Thanks Jo!!! Your a life saver!!!!!
