Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 ounces Silken tofu
- 3 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder (optional, for chocolate flavor)
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup or agave syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional, for chocolate flavor)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice (optional, for tangy flavor)
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
Drain the silken tofu and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
If making a chocolate version, melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave or double boiler until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly.
Add the silken tofu, maple syrup (or agave syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to a blender or food processor.
If making a chocolate version, add the melted chocolate and unsweetened cocoa powder. For a tangy version, include the fresh lemon juice.
Blend the mixture on high speed for 1-2 minutes until completely smooth and creamy.
Taste and adjust sweetness or flavoring as desired by adding more maple syrup, vanilla, or cocoa powder.
Transfer the pudding to serving dishes if eating as-is, or pour it into a pre-baked pie crust if using as a pie filling.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set and enhance flavor.
Serve cold as pudding or pie and garnish with fresh fruit, whipped coconut cream, or chocolate shavings, if desired.
