September 20, 2010

avocado pudding with spicy cashews

Ingredients:

 

Makes 2 small servings

1 small to medium (4-5 oz) Hass avocado

1/2 cup nut milk or rice milk (I used my fresh unsweetened mixed nut milk)

5 teaspoons (35 g) honey or agave nectar

4-5 teaspoons lime juice

1 teaspoon lime zest

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1 oz (~2 tablespoons) finely chopped spicy roasted cashews, or use plain roasted cashews and a small pinch of cayenne pepper

Instructions:

Blend the avocado, milk, honey, lime juice, zest and salt together. Scrap the sides of the container a couple of times and continue blending until smooth. Taste and add additional honey for sweeter pudding.

Stir in half of the cashews and spoon into two bowls. Top with the remaining cashews.

*If you are making this ahead of time, store it in the fridge and press a sheet of plastic wrap onto the surface of the pudding to prevent browning.
