Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup almond milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Carefully slice the ripe avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop out the soft avocado flesh into a food processor or high-powered blender.
- Add the cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond milk, and vanilla extract to the avocado in the food processor.
- Blend the ingredients on high speed for 2-3 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the container, until the mixture becomes completely smooth and creamy with no visible avocado chunks.
- Taste the pudding and adjust sweetness by adding more maple syrup if desired. If the texture is too thick, add a little more almond milk and blend again.
- Transfer the chocolate pudding into serving glasses or small bowls.
- For best results, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the pudding to chill and flavors to meld together.
- Before serving, optionally garnish with fresh berries, chopped nuts, or a sprinkle of cocoa powder on top.
- Serve chilled and enjoy your creamy, dairy-free, gluten-free chocolate pudding.
Tips
- Choose a perfectly ripe avocado - it should yield slightly when gently pressed but not be mushy
- Use high-quality cocoa powder for the most intense chocolate flavor
- Blend thoroughly to ensure a completely smooth texture with no avocado chunks
- Chill the pudding for at least 30 minutes to enhance flavor and texture
- For extra indulgence, experiment with toppings like crushed nuts, coconut flakes, or fresh berries
- If the pudding is too thick, add almond milk gradually; if too thin, add a bit more cocoa powder
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days
