    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

Ingredients
½ cup large pearl tapioca
3 cups whole milk
2 eggs, well beaten
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup organic cane sugar (for a healthier option, use ⅓ to ½ cup coconut palm sugar, or to taste)
½–1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, or to taste
½ teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon butter
Fresh nutmeg, for garnish
6 cinnamon sticks (optional)

Directions
1.Soak the tapioca in 1 cup of the milk and store overnight in the refrigerator. The tapioca will have absorbed most of the milk.

2.In the morning, pour the remaining 2 cups of milk into a 2-quart heavy bottomed saucepan. Add the soaked tapioca to the saucepan. Turn heat to low.

3.Add eggs, salt, sugar, and cinnamon. Turn heat to medium. Stir continuously for about 15–20 minutes, or until the mixture thickens.

4.Remove from heat. Add vanilla and butter.

5.Cool slightly, then spoon the pudding into tall glasses. Garnish with a grind of fresh nutmeg and a cinnamon stick. Serve warm or cold
