Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe bananas
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons unsweetened shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)
- 2 leaves fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the ripe bananas and slice them into chunks for easier blending.
In a high-speed blender or food processor, add the banana chunks, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract.
Blend the mixture on high until it becomes smooth and creamy. Stop to scrape down the sides as necessary to ensure a uniform texture.
Taste the pudding and adjust the sweetness or lemon flavor by adding more maple syrup or lemon juice, if desired.
Once blended, transfer the pudding into serving bowls or small jars.
Optionally, top the pudding with unsweetened shredded coconut and a fresh mint leaf for garnish.
Serve immediately for a chilled, creamy dessert. Alternatively, refrigerate for 15-20 minutes if you prefer a firmer texture.
