Easy Paleo & Vegan Chocolate Pudding
This Easy Paleo & Vegan Chocolate Pudding is rich, creamy, and simple to make, offering a delicious chocolate treat without dairy or refined sugars.
Equipment
- small saucepan
- Whisk
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups organic coconut cream from a can
- 0.5 cups raw cacao powder or unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
- 6 tablespoon pure maple syrup or 6–8 tablespoon depending on sweetness preference
- 2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 pinch fine grain sea salt generous
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over low heat, whisk together the coconut cream, cacao, and maple syrup (start with 6 Tbsp, or even less for a very dark chocolate pudding) until smooth.
- Continue to cook and stir over low/medium heat for about 2 minutes, or until the mixture begins to come to a boil with small bubbles.
- Remove from heat and stir in the salt and vanilla. Taste, and add more maple if you’d like a sweeter pudding.
- Pour the mixture into individual containers or one larger bowl to chill and set. Cover and refrigerate until set, or overnight for a thick creamy pudding.
Notes
Start with 6 tablespoon maple syrup or less depending on sweetness preference. Chill pudding covered until set or overnight for best texture. Serve with coconut whipped cream for extra richness.
