This Chocolate Avocado Pudding was originally published May 2016. I updated the recipe and reshot the photos for you. It’s delicious!
I have a confession. I don’t love avocado. That’s not to say I hate it because really avocado doesn’t taste like anything. There’s something about the texture though. I just can never eat it on its own. I guess some people are adverse to certain textures and avocado is my adversity.
Suffice to say, it’s pretty unlikely you’ll ever find me eating an avocado on its own. Either it has to be in the form of guacamole or hidden in something else for me to muster up the strength to eat it like this Chocolate Avocado Pudding!

How to make homemade healthy chocolate pudding

How is this chocolate pudding better for you
If you’ve ever bought pudding at the store and looked at the ingredients, you may have scratched your head wondering what exactly was in it.
This chocolate pudding has no artificial ingredients. No natural ingredients (*natural* isn’t really natural – that’s marketing).
This is chocolate pudding recipe is also way lower in sugar than other recipes. We’re using REAL honey in this recipe. I don’t recommend subbing anything other than real maple syrup or stevia. Artificial sugars are not recommended for a variety of reasons which I talk about in this post.
Now I know some of you will say there’s too much fat in the recipe. There’s not. This recipe is nutritionally balanced. Fat increases fullness, stabilizes blood sugar, balances hormones and is necessary for proper hormone and brain function.
The fat in this recipe is coming from avocados which is low in saturated fat and high in monounsaturated fat. This particular type of fat is shown to be the best kind you can eat.
Remember, not all fat is created equal. Just like not all sugar is either so eat up!

Notes
- My Amazon shop has more products similar to those used for this recipe and that I recommend to my nutrition clients.
- If the honey isn’t enough sweetness for you, add a bit of stevia to sweeten more!
Nutrition
Nutrition information is automatically calculated, so should only be used as an approximation.
I just had my gallbladder removed and am working on cutting out a lot of dairy, bad fats, and processed foods. Would the amount of fat in the 1/3 cup serving work well with my newly-overhauled digestive system as an occasional sweet treat?
This recipe has all healthy fat in it so it should not aggravate someone with a gallbladder removed the way a greasy hamburger and fries would. That said, everyone is different and their tolerance level may be different for fats. Some of my clients can eat fat with no issues and some cannot. It’s a trial and error for everyone. That said, you may not want to add the stevia as that would be more likely to aggravate you than the fat.
Hi Megan,
Could I use coconut yogurt in place of Greek yogurt? Or will that effect the taste? BTW love your recipes
You could definitely use a dairy free yogurt. The consistency may be different and of course, the nutrition will be a lot different too. Higher calories and fat so just keep that in mind. Thanks for following!
I just tried it using plain, unsweetened So Delicious coconut milk yogurt and it was great! Because itโs unflavored there was no change in taste. Iโm allergic to dairy so canโt use regular yogurt and I have to say this was super. Iโll definitely make it again!
Where can I find raw honey and if I canโt find it can I use jar honey ?
Walmart has raw honey! Most jars are raw, you just want to be sure nothing has been added.
How does this hold up in the fridge? Want to take on vacation with me!
It will hold up 3, maybe 4 days in the fridge.
