Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas (about 200g)
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup keto-friendly sweetener (e.g., erythritol)
- 2 tsp unflavored gelatin powder
Optional Topping
- 1/2 cup homemade whipped cream
Instructions
- Mash Bananas: Mash the ripe bananas in a mixing bowl until smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no large chunks for a silky pudding texture.
- Dissolve Gelatin: In a saucepan over low heat, combine the full-fat coconut milk and the unflavored gelatin powder. Stir continuously until the gelatin is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Add Sweetener and Vanilla: Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the keto-friendly sweetener and pure vanilla extract until well combined.
- Combine Banana Mixture: Fold the mashed bananas into the coconut milk mixture gently until everything is evenly mixed, creating a consistent pudding base.
- Chill and Set: Pour the pudding into individual serving dishes and refrigerate for at least two hours, or until the pudding is fully set and chilled.
- Serve: Optionally, top with homemade whipped cream before serving for added richness and a creamy finish.
Notes
- Ensure the gelatin is fully dissolved to avoid lumps in the pudding.
- For a smoother texture, you can blend the banana mixture instead of mashing by hand.
- This pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- If you want a firmer pudding, increase gelatin to 3 teaspoons.
- Homemade whipped cream can be made by whipping heavy cream with a small amount of keto-friendly sweetener.
