Want to have pudding without having any weird dairy reaction? Or overloading on carbs or sugar? Or, or? Well I have the perfect thing that sacrificed ZERO on taste, flavor, and consistency. AVOCADO CHOCOLATE PUDDING!
This pudding is the best of the best. And no one will ever know it has avocados — unless they read this recipe. Seriously. I’ve shared this with people who literally hate avocado and they have enjoy this pudding!
The avocados are the star here — but you’d never realize it. They lend a thick, creamy, dreamy texture. Plus they provide some seriously healthy fat that your body will really appreciate. I always think of this cute cartoon when I think of fatty avocados.
Just a handful of simple ingredients make this magical pudding of delight: cashews, avocados, maple, cacao (although I’m sure cocoa powder would work too!), and vanilla. Blend it all together until completely smooth, chill and serve. It’s one reeeeeeeally huge serving or four little ones. All depends on the mood.
And then, if you want to level up, add this avocado chocolate pudding to a crust and make a delectable chocolate pudding pie! You will see my paleo pudding pie recipe here soon! Just look at that and tell me it’s not beautiful.
Stay tuned, because that puddin’ pie is on its way!
