Ingredients

  • 2 large avocados semi ripe if possible
  • cup of cacao 30g
  • cup of coconut nectar or maple/agave(100g)
  • 4 dates
  • ½ cup of almond milk or other plant based milk(100ml/4oz)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

To make the crumble topping

  • ½ cup of almond meal 50g
  • 1 tablespoon of dairy free butter make sure it's very cold
  • 2 tablespoon of coconut sugar or other low GI sweetener

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180c/356/gas mark 4
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside
  • Prepare the crumble first by placing the almond meal, coconut sugar and dairy free butter in a medium sized bowl.
  • Use the pads of your fingers to breakdown all three ingredients together so it creates a soft crumble.
  • Spread the crumble onto the parchment paper and toast in the oven for 10 minutes until golden and mix so the crumbs are even in colour
  • While the crumble is being toasted, prepare the chocolate pudding by pureeing the avocados, cacao, dates, nectar/syrup, nut milk and vanilla.
  • Once pureed transfer into a bowl(s)/glass(es) of your choice and sprinkle the golden crumble mix on top of the pudding.

Notes

  • Keep in mind the more ripe the avocados are the stronger the avocado taste
  • You can double the batch if you are serving to a large crowd.
  • Serving size is varied I managed to fill a standard sized breakfast bowl with this recipe. However, you can serve in multiple shot glasses or souffle dishes. 
  • Make sure to use almond meal and not almond flour as the two are not the same. Almond meal is a slightly coarse texture.
  • Use a granulated low calorie/glycemic index sugar such as coconut sugar to make the crumble. Syrup/nectar might be too heavy for the crumble.
  • Use an immersion stick blender or food processor to puree the avocados and so fourth.
  • Any excess crumble mix can be frozen and used at another time.
  • To make this recipe keto friendly use stevia or erythritol 
  • Make sure the butter is cold, straight out of the refrigerator and NOT room temperature/melting.
