Pudding for breakfast? Yes please! That is what has been going on around here. Have you ever roasted peaches? Have you ever made tapioca pudding? I love little tapioca pearls, they add such a fun texture to your pudding. Usually tapioca pudding is made with eggs and cream. I lightened my recipe with low fat creamy coconut milk.
Tangy peaches, smooth coconut and tapioca combine to make a dreamy flavor filled experience.
Let’s make some pudding!
Soft, fuzzy peaches are seen all over the local farmers’ market.
I love to roast all kinds of fruit. Earlier this summer I was roasting strawberries like crazy…
Did you have a chance to try my Citrus Roasted Strawberry Parfaits?
You can also bake a batch of  my Sunny Strawberry Sandwich Cookies. Those use roasted strawberries too.
Come to think of it, both of those recipes would be great with these roasted peaches. Just swap out the strawberries for peach ~ or use both!
Coconut is a favorite here as well. All summer I have been making vegan ice cream.
I use it a whole lot in shakes and smoothies too.
You can also find coconut in my breakfast bakes ~ Blueberry Coconut Baked Steel Cut Oatmeal.
This pudding helps to energize us for the beautiful summer days we are enjoying here in Telluride, CO.
Tapioca is a gluten free starch extracted from cassava ~ it is loaded with carbs that get burned quickly with all of our fitness.
These photos were taken on mountain bike rides,
hilly hikes…
And impromptu fishing trips on the creek….
Sometimes we even fish on the sidewalk ~ it is all good over here.
My larger camera is often with me, but I also enjoy the casual, light quality of my iPhone.
Sometimes it is nice to have a small click that I can fit in my pocket.
The sun comes and goes throughout the day. Thunderous monsoon rain storms occur frequently. They are followed by glorious bluebird skies. I love the drama of living in the mountains…
I am not sure where the time is going. So many great memories are created each day.
We embrace the passage of time with smiles, giggles and lots of great food.

I’ve never tried tapioca pudding, let alone made it, but those pictures have me swooning so much that I think I’ll need to make this! Looks absolutely phenomenal.
Hi Rachel, I hope you get to try tapioca pudding soon!
This is absolutely gorgeous. And what a fun breakfast 🙂
Thank you!! We need to make another batch of pudding again asap!
any one component of this and I’d be so happy
the peaches – oh they look so gorgeous after the roasting
the pearls & tapioca – delish
the vegan creme – I have been coveting this ever since your post about it a month or so ago
the images – just breathtaking. Sunset magazine and Martha Stewart will be calling soon!
Averie, I LOVE YOU. I wish Sunset and Martha Stewart would call….a girl can dream. Thanks so much for all of your sweetness!
My kids would LOVE to eat this pudding for breakfast. Me too!! Such gorgeous photos!
Awesome!! I hope you and your kids get to try this some time real soon!
A great dessert! Tapioca pudding and roasted peaches are irresistible.
Cheers,
Rosa
Marla, I am ready to come back. Know this grocery sign.
We are always in need of new breakfast ideas. I’ll get some more Palisade peaches tomorrow at the market.
Have a great weekend.

i absolutely adore roasted peaches AND tapioca…this is a match made in heaven!
We love tapioca — in fact, my mom makes an awesome savory tapioca salad. It’s so versatile 🙂
Marla,
Love how you’ve made it into a pudding. So luscious 🙂
roasted peaches and rice pudding – now that’s a winning combo!
I was never a fan of tapioca, but yours looks amazing! I have to try it again, and I”m betting it cooked in coconut milk makes it taste amazing!! I can’t wait to try it!!
I lovvvve tapioca.. and peaches! I definately will be trying this out soon! Do you think I could use “Instant” Tapioca pearls? I know that that is not ideal, but I think we have some in the back of the cupboard that need to be used up.
Andrea, you can try those – though I never have. I am sure it will turn out great!! Just follow the package directions for the tapioca you do have.
Great treat for anytime of the day!
My hubby and 5 year old will love this. They’re nuts for tapioca. Can’t wait to try it
Such a fabulous idea for breakfast, Marla!
Great idea – roasting peaches. I like the small sago tapioca pearls and make a Thai Coconut Tapioca pudding. Great pics and fun family memories!
Jeanette, the Thai pudding you make sounds great. What do you put in that??
Sometimes I serve it with mango, although traditionally it’s served with corn.
Ohh i’ve never made tapioca pudding before, but i’ve tried it before and i LOVED it. SO GOOD. Thnx for the awesome recipe
Kammie, you are so welcome!! Go on and make yourself some tapioca pudding. Little effort ~ great rewards 🙂
This is such a beautiful treat, I love your styling with the fresh flowers!
Thank you so much Laura!
LOVE anything with coconut milk – so dreamy! And your recipe is a masterpiece of a summer dessert!
Thanks Donna!! “masterpiece” love that!!
Pudding for breakfast? Count me IN too! This looks phenomena, Marla. Mmm!
I love your recipe for peach tapioca pudding. Your photography is great and makes the pudding look sooo good. I live in Evergreen CO and I love the mountain pictures as well. You should check out my site. I am a registered dietitian and I have a gluten free living site.
Thanks Claudine!! Where is Evergreen, CO? Sounds so pretty 🙂
I can’t believe it but I’ve never had tapioca pudding. But this recipe with those beautiful roasted peaches has me craving a first try. So pretty, lovely colours. You always have the healthiest, tastiest looking recipes.
Gorgeous as usual! Love seeing all the adventures you and your family are up to!
I love the combination of flavos here! It looks truly good!
I have never made tapioca pudding before but have always wanted to! My Mom used to make it all the time when I was a kid. I love the combination of flavors, Marla!
Super excited to try this recipe! You’ve been a lifesaver the past few weeks!
I need to get my hands on some peaches before the good ones are gone!
