This silky chocolate pudding gets its creamy texture from avocado and natural sweetness from maple syrup. Finished with roasted strawberries and pistachios, it’s a vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free dessert that feels indulgent while staying wholesome.

Happy cooking 🥰 ☀️
VERY yummy! First, I used very ripe avocados and a good bourbon vanilla extract. I blended all the ingredients in a bowl with a hand mixer using the highest speed, turning the bowl and scraping to insure all ingredients were blended to a smooth consistency. I did not have time to roast the strawberries so I cut them up and tossed separately with an aged Balsamic and topped the pudding with the Balsamic strawberry mixture and chopped pecans. Truly a delicious treat 😋
I did all the measurments correctly, even added in some extra honey, but it literally looked like barf. It was so bad that when i finally brought myself to try it, I almost hurled. Nobody in my family enjoyed the taste in the slightest. This recipie should be modified because it was just down-right disgusting for a recipie that was completely done correctly.
I use 3-4 soaked dates to sweeten vs maple syrup.
Ill have to try this never had it before so I’m not sure if I would like it.
These recipes look very delicious I’m going to keep them thank you very much for sharing.

We pretty much have all these ingredients so don’t need to shop for them. Healthy dessert option. My guess is that it could keep refrigerated for 2 or 3 days as well. Mmm.
The pudding topped off with strawberries and pistachios looks delicious. Will definitely be trying this recipe. Thanks for sharing.

What raw coaco powder do you recommend??
Any 100% unsweetened cacao powder works great here—just make sure it has no added sugar or additives. Organic is a nice bonus 😊
