Recently I saw a recipe for Avocado Pudding on facebook. Travis was making a Mexican dish, so I thought I'd try this for desert.
Avocado Pudding Recipe
I looked up recipes for, "Avocado Pudding" there are a lot of recipes. Apparently this isn't a new idea.
It's super easy to make. Everything goes in a food processor in any order really. I left the amount of sweetener up to you. At first I just added a drop of plain liquid Stevia. That was fine for Travis that doesn't have a sweet tooth. The boys and I wanted a drop more added to each of our own servings.

I thought just like chocolate bars come with different flavors, you could add flavors into this recipe easily for a different variations.
- NuNaturals Nustevia has different flavors for their liquid Stevia. You could try using a flavored Stevia instead of one without any flavor.
- We just got chocolate bars that had a sprinkle of Cayenne Pepper in them. I could see that in the Avocado Pudding as odd as that sounds, it could work. Just don't add too much. Just a sprinkle!
- Another thought was to add peanut butter powder if you're a peanut butter lover like I am.
- If you don't like Stevia you could use any sweetener really: White Sugar, Brown Sugar, Syrup, Agave Syrup are just some ideas.
You will want to make sure it's chilled before eating. I thought the cold milk would chill it enough. I tasted it when I was done making it, and it needs to be chilled more for sure.
I won't say it tastes just like the pudding from the box. It has more of a Mexican Chocolate kind of a taste. It's healthier for sure!
It makes enough for 4 servings. Perfect for my family. If you are making this for just 1 person consider cutting the recipe in 1/2. You can serve it in ramekins like I did, or the Avocado skins like I saw on facebook.

This is a lot like the cocoa avocado smoothie bowls I like to make. If you want to skip on the sweetener, blend in a few dates for sweetness next time.
I made avocado pudding once and it did not go over well in my house. Maybe your version is better.
I am not sure if I would like this or not... but I am pretty sure I would try it to at least see how it was :)
