Ingredients:
1 cup coconut palm sugar
2 tablespoons water
3/4 cup coconut (canned, full fat)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 ripe avocados
Optional:
Coconut milk (canned full fat) stored overnight in the fridge for whipped topping
Pistachios or another nut for topping
Directions:
Step 1: Assemble ingredients.
Step 2: Add water and coconut palm sugar to a non-stick saucepan. Start on medium heat, until it comes to a light boil. Add salt and coconut milk to sugar, lower heat, and lightly simmer for 8-10 minutes (until slightly thickened).
Step 3: Add caramel mixture, vanilla, salt, and avocados to a food processor or blender. Mix on high until creamy and smooth. Add additional salt as needed.
Step 4: Store pudding in the fridge for at least 1 hour before serving. Optionally, scoop out the firm portion of canned coconut milk from the top of the refrigerator can. Whip until creamy and smooth. Top pudding with whipped topping and nuts when ready to serve.
Avocados are also rich in fiber, a nutrient tied to healthy blood sugar regulation, toxin removal, and a decreased chance of chronic illness like diabetes. Consuming fiber also helps feed the healthy bacteria in our gut. Our gut is responsible for a huge portion of our immunity, serotonin production, mood, and energy. Poor gut health can actually change the way we absorb micronutrients, so even if we are eating all of the right foods, we may not reap the full benefits without getting our gut health in check first. Eating a clean diet free of processed sugar, gluten, and dairy are great first steps to improving gut health. Taking a high-quality probiotic, trying a glutamine supplement, or Beta-Glucan are all great ways to support the gut further.
