*This recipe makes 8 servings – each is about 324 calories so if you’re goal is weight loss be mindful of how often you enjoy this dessert
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup almond flour
half a stick of butter (4 tablespoons), melted
1/4 cup Monk Fruit or Swerve (erythritol) sweetener
coconut oil
4 ripe avocadoes
8 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 cup almond milk
6 tablespoon Choc Zero Maple Syrup
2 tablespoon Monk Fruit or Swerve (erythritol) sweetener
sprinkle of unsweetened coconut flakes (optional)
Instructions:
- make the pie crust by mixing the melted butter with the erithrytol in a small bowl, then pouring into the almond flour in a medium sized mixing bowl and blending well. I just used my hands 🙂
- use a little coconut oil to grease a pie dish then evenly distribute the curst mix using your hands to press it firmly into the bottom and shape with your fingers, place in refrigerator for 20 minutes.
- in a blender (I used my vitamix) add the avocado, cocoa powder, almond milk, 2 tablespoon erithrytol and the agave, mix well until it become a smooth pudding consistency.
- spread the pudding mix evenly into the pie crust (you’ll have about a cup extra leftover that you can enjoy as a snack later in the week, just slice some strawberries or maybe some sugar free whip cream)
- let the pie set in the fridge for an hour then slice and enjoy with some sprinkled unsweetened coconut flakes.

yummy, something for me 🙂 One question though- can I use erithrytol instead of agave when making the pudding?

You can, but it might be a little grainy. You can also throw the erythritol into a blender on high prior to using it to make it into a powder. That way it won’t be too crunchy.

Also they sell Swerve Confectioners sugar (e.g on Amazon) – maybe it would be less grainy?

Also keep in mind that erithrytol is also used as a vasodilator (lowers bloodpressure). So as with all things – enjoy in moderation.

Wow. Thanks. I had no idea.. (I have low blood pressure – so need to be careful).

Vasodilators prevent dilation of blood vessels and do not thin blood.

You’re half right Chris. Vasodilators do not thin blood, but open (dilate) blood vessels. (mayoclinic.org)

I must have just been a contrarian there because I actually do know what Vasodilators and dilate means and you are right. Opening up not stopping. Thank you for the correction.:-)

This might also work well with silken Tofu instead of Avocado. To have less fast, high Protein Version. 🙂

hi Zuzka is it possible for the team to put all your recipe Videos in one spot and have that as a sub category for those of us who really struggle while cooking and could use the guidance of hands on. I know how much it would help me and hope it is possible. I am very very nervous to try this as i cant bake well I just started about two years ago and can not yet make a chocolate cake. lol
Supper, no problem, super easy with real meals.
I will try this when I work up the courage and put together all the ingredients, Thanx so much for all you’ve done and shared with us so far . You are very creative, I am blessed to have found you in all the 8 billion here, lol!!

I don’t have that many recipe videos though. And what are you afraid off? 🙂 you can only learn if you allow yourself to mess up. You think I knew how to cook and bake when I started making these recipes? 🙂 I was just willing to try and when I messed up, I tried again with a different approach. No one will judge you if you mess up 🙂

I used monfruit & it created hard to dissolve sludge. Just heads up. May be better to mix it up with the almond flour instead of melting it in the butter.
