CHOCOLATE OR CAROB PUDDING (VEGAN, LIGHT)



Chocolate or Carob Pudding (Vegan, Light) image

Though I usually make this "light," I did include a couple of optional enrichments. A note about sweetener: I used to make this with agave nectar but am now using Truvia. I prefer to add sweetener after cooking, but you may want to add the sweetener while the pudding is cooking.

Categories     Dessert

Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons carob powder or 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 cups almond milk (or rice, or soy or cow's milk)
3 -4 tablespoons agave nectar (use less sweetener for carob)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
1 -3 teaspoon butter (optional) or 1 -3 teaspoon virgin coconut oil (optional)

Steps:

  • Blend carob or cocoa powder with cornstarch in saucepan by mashing them together with a fork to flatten any small lumps.
  • Add small amounts of almond milk gradually, blending well after each addition.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently. You can start at a higher heat for the first one or two minutes, but keep stirring and lower the heat so as not to scorch the pudding at the bottom.
  • You can add the vanilla if using, at this point.
  • Bring to a boil, lower heat, and boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. You may add your sweetener of choice now, or after pudding is cooked.
  • Add butter or coconut oil, if using, and stir to melt and blend. (I prefer to add virgin coconut oil at this point so that it doesn't cook).
  • Chill or serve warm.

VEGAN CHOCOLATE PUDDING



Vegan Chocolate Pudding image

Here's a festive treat for your vegan guests that requires no cooking at all! It's rich and silky-smooth, but the creaminess in this dairy-free pudding comes from cashews, not custard.

Provided by Riley Wofford

Categories     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Time 9h

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups raw cashews (7 ounces)
3 tablespoons natural cocoa powder
3/4 cup unsweetened plant-based milk
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 ounces melted semi-sweet chocolate
Pinch of kosher salt
Vegan yogurt and crushed candy canes, for serving

Steps:

  • Place cashews in a bowl, cover with cold water, and let soak in the refrigerator overnight. Drain and transfer to a food processor or high-powered blender cocoa powder, plant-based milk, maple syrup, vanilla, melted chocolate, and salt. Blend until creamy and smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Divide among 4 to 6 small glasses; cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 2 days. Bring to room temperature before adding a dollop of yogurt and a sprinkle of crushed candy canes.

Tips:

  • Use ripe avocados: For the creamiest, smoothest pudding, use ripe avocados. You can tell an avocado is ripe when it yields to gentle pressure and the skin is dark green or almost black.
  • Chill the pudding before serving: This will help the pudding to set and develop a firmer texture. You can also chill the pudding overnight for a more intense flavor.
  • Get creative with your toppings: You can top the pudding with a variety of fruits, nuts, and seeds. Some popular options include berries, bananas, chopped nuts, and chia seeds.
  • Make it a party: Chocolate or carob pudding is a great dessert for parties. You can make it ahead of time and serve it in individual glasses or ramekins.
  • Experiment with different flavors: You can add a variety of flavors to the pudding, such as vanilla extract, almond extract, or cinnamon. You can also use different types of milk, such as almond milk or coconut milk, to create different flavor variations.

Conclusion:

Chocolate or carob pudding is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great source of nutrients, such as antioxidants and fiber, and it can be made with a variety of different ingredients to suit your dietary needs. Whether you are looking for a healthy and satisfying snack or a decadent dessert, chocolate or carob pudding is a great choice.
