Avocado and almond butter add richness to this chocolaty pudding.
½ ripe Hass avocado, halved and pitted
1¼ cups strawberries, blueberries, or other berries of choice
3 tablespoons unsweetened cacao powder
2 tablespoons almond butter
½ cup Date Syrup
1½ cups Almond Milk
¼ cup chia seeds
Optional garnishes: fresh berries, raw slivered almonds, cacao nibs
Scoop out the flesh from the avocado and place it in a high-speed blender or food processor. Add the berries, cacao powder, almond butter, Date Syrup, and Almond Milk. Blend until completely smooth and then pour into a bowl. Whisk in the chia seeds until they’re evenly distributed. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours. Divide the pudding among four small dessert bowls, garnish as desired, and refrigerate for 20 minutes before serving.
