Chunky Monkey Chocolate Pudding | PALEO
Servings: 6
Calories: 436kcal
Ingredients
- 13.5 oz can coconut cream*
- 1 tbsp Vital Proteins Grass-Fed Beef Gelatin
- 1/2 tsp Vital Proteins Grass-Fed Beef Gelatin
- 2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
- 1 banana, halved
- 1 tsp vanilla
- pinch sea salt
- 1/2 cup cocoa or cacao powder
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (dairy, refined sugar free)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of the coconut cream with the gelatin and set aside.
- Slice a banana in half: saving one half of it for blending, and chopping the other half into small pieces.
- To a blender or food processor, add the remaining coconut cream, maple syrup or honey, vanilla, sea salt, and 1/2 of the banana. Pulse until smooth.
- Transfer the smooth mixture to a medium saucepan over medium heat, and stir in the cocoa powder. Bring the mixture to a low boil, then remove it from the heat.
- Whisk in the gelatin mixture. Let it cool to room temperature, then stir in the chopped banana, chopped walnuts, and chocolate chips.
- Cover the bowl and transfer to the fridge, chilling until thick and creamy. Give it a stir every 30 minutes or so to keep it smooth without a "skin" forming on top. Top with extra banana, walnuts, and chocolate chips if you're feeling fancy.
- Serve chilled, sitting out at room temperature for a few minutes to soften if you'd like. Enjoy!
Notes
We found our coconut cream at Trader Joe's. Substitute full-fat coconut milk if that's what you have, and increase the gelatin by 1/2 tsp.
