This was part of a challenge last month in the cooking group I belong to on Facebook - make a vegan pudding. I've been wanting to have a go at this for a long time, and finally got round to it today. It's my variation on a standard recipe that I've seen on several sites around the net - I made mine according to what I had in the larder. I'm delighted to report that it does indeed taste very, very good, and I would make it again I think. I used American measures as that's what was in the original recipe, but easy to find a converter online if you don't possess a cup measure. 2 small very ripe avocados 1/4 cup cocoa 1/4 cup almond milk 1 good tbsp. golden syrup dash of vanilla extract Half and scoop out the avocado flesh into a bowl and mash well with a fork; add other ingredients and beat well for a couple of minutes. Spoon into ramekins and chill. I made my own almond milk by putting some ground almonds into a bowl and covering them with boiling water. let them stand a few minutes, then drain through a strainer. Very successful, easy and quicker than using whole almonds. |

Sounds yummy, I have had this pudding before, but not made with golden syrup.
ReplyDeleteI make almond milk by soaking the almonds overnight then blitzing them with some (fresh) water in the blender. It might work to use ready ground almonds - or maybe use a mouli to grind the whole soaked almonds... I'll have to try that.
