Servings: 4 pudding cups
Ingredients
- 2 avocados
- 2/3 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 3 tbsp yogurt
- 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Place avocado in a food processor and pulse until smooth. If you do not own a food processor, you can put the avocado in a bowl and smash it with a fork, working out all of the lumps.Place avocados in a food processor and pulse for 10-15 seconds. Then, add the cocoa powder and cinnamon and pulse for another 15 seconds.
- With the motor running, add the maple syrup, yogurt and vanilla in through the top and continue pulsing until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
- Scoop the pudding into 4 small dishes, then place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour so it firms up a bit. Top with whipped cream (optional) and enjoy!
