Paleo Chocolate Pudding Recipe
When I was creating this paleo chocolate pudding I was determined to have a smooth creamy chocolate texture that didn’t compromise taste. I was pretty shocked that even though the main ingredient in the pudding was avocados, I couldn’t taste them at all. You guys really have no idea how accomplished I felt. The avocados gave the pudding such a rich and creamy texture. I can’t wait for you all to give it a try!

How to Make Paleo Chocolate Pudding
Following the measurements and directions in the printable recipe below, combine the ingredients and pulse in a small food processor until smooth and creamy. This is best served cold, so make sure to refrigerate for at least 1 hour prior to serving.
How to Pick a Ripe Avocado
One of the most important parts of making this easy pudding recipe is to have the ripe avocado. Look for darker green outer skin on avocados for a riper option. When you gently squeeze them, you want to feel some softness, but not overly soft. Slight pressure should allow you to squeeze the fruit, but not make an indentation or break the skin.

I so need to make this! Hope kids like it.
Let’s hope it can trick your kids into thinking it’s real pudding ????
This is perfect. My husband is on a diet and sometimes I crave something sweet but don’t make it because I don’t want to be the only one eating it. I will for sure try making this soon. I don’t have a food processor.. anything else I could use?
Valentina I’m so happy you stumbled upon this recipe! I’m pretty sure a blender will do the job 🙂
What an intriguing recipe. I cannot resist chocolate either. Thanks for a healthier alternative.
You’re welcome Loretta 🙂
