Never thought of putting the two together--sounds delcious!
these look delicious!
I may double the recipe and use all my pumpkin. I made pumpkin muffins just last week. I'll be the inclusion of the pudding makes it even more yummy. I'll have to try this. Thanks for sharing.
This is an interesting combination. I have never had pumpkin and coconut together before. It would be fun to try. Thanks for sharing this recipe with us!
I love baked goods with pumpkin, but have never tried it with coconut. The recipe sounds and looks delish. I'll be sure to give it a try. Thanks for the recipe!
This can not be a bad thing!! This is autum in a muffin!
My favorite recipes are those that are simple, easy and delicious. Marti, you hit a home run. This looks very, very good. Have a great day.
Okay...I've seen pumpkin combined with all sorts of interesting things but I think this is a first for Coconut pudding. Yummy, and I'm betting very moist. Thanks for posting :)
Blessings!

They look delish! Never thought of adding coconut.
I love any recipe with pumpkin in it, especially this time of year. There's just something wonderful about autumn, cider, and pumpkin muffins. These look fabulous!
Now that you have done it, I see how coconut and pumpkin go together. Great idea.
