Simple but delicious with Vietnamese Banana Pudding! (Chè Chuối Chưng)

This type of delightful dessert is a great way to use up all of ripe bananas in your house. Ripe bananas will give this dessert the full flavor and scent of bananas. Thus, the natural sweetness from ripe bananas will make our pudding more delicious. In the recipe, we only use very small amount of sugar (but depending on your taste, you can add more or less sugar, as desired).
Its texture should be thick and creamy with the addition of coconut milk. Furthermore, tapioca shreds and tapioca pearls give the dessert its beautiful look. The main ingredients to make the dessert are pretty simple, including ripe bananas, tapioca shreds, tapioca pearls, and coconut milk.
