This easy dairy-free chocolate pudding by Clean Food Dirty Girl blends creamy avocado with cocoa powder and maple syrup to create a rich, plant-based dessert in just 10 minutes. The avocado gives the pudding its signature velvety texture without the need for dairy or thickeners.

While it may sound unconventional, avocado is a popular ingredient in desserts around the world. Its mild flavor and high fat content make it perfect for achieving creaminess without overpowering sweet recipes.

Avocados also bring nutritional benefits to the table. They’re rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, fiber, and vitamins like folate and potassium. This makes the pudding not just indulgent but also nourishing.

The addition of vanilla extract and maple syrup balances the cocoa’s richness, and customizable toppings like berries or coconut whip take this dairy-free chocolate pudding up a notch. You can add any toppings you like beyond berries, too, like more chocolate or nuts.
