Ingredients
Scale
Fruits
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, washed, hulled, and sliced
- 2 ripe bananas, peeled and chopped
Cream Mixture
- 1 cup plant-based cream
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (natural)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
- 1 tablespoon natural gelling agent
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Prepare the Fruit Base: Wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them gently. Peel and chop ripe bananas. Combine both fruits in a blender or food processor until smooth but slightly textured to maintain a fresh fruit feeling.
- Heat the Cream Mixture: Pour the plant-based cream into a saucepan and warm it gently over medium heat. Stir in the maple syrup (natural) and vanilla extract (natural) until everything is well combined and fragrant.
- Add the Natural Gelling Agent: Sprinkle the natural gelling agent evenly over the warm cream mixture while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Continue heating for a few minutes to ensure the pudding sets perfectly.
- Combine Fruit and Cream: Slowly incorporate the blended strawberry and banana mixture into the creamy base, stirring thoroughly to achieve a harmonious blend of flavors and texture.
- Chill to Set: Pour the pudding into serving dishes or a large bowl. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or until the pudding firms up to your desired creamy consistency.
Notes
- Use ripe fruit to ensure natural sweetness and optimal flavor.
- Whisk the cream mixture thoroughly when adding the natural gelling agent to prevent clumps.
- Allow sufficient chilling time; at least 3 hours for the ideal texture.
- For presentation, layer fruit and cream for a visually appealing dessert.
- Taste the mixture before setting and adjust sweetness with additional maple syrup (natural) if desired.
