Blended Avocado Desserts

This Gluten-Free Treat is a Healthy Pudding Dessert Alternative

— May 25, 2015 — Lifestyle
This delicious avocado chocolate pudding dessert is not only gluten-free, it is guilt-free as well! It is a healthy alternative to traditional chocolaty, high-sugar desserts so there is no need to skip over the sweet indulgence that should follow every meal.

This classically inspired pudding recipe was created by the triple threat Ellie Krieger. She is a New York Times best-selling author, registered dietitian and host of Food Network’s Healthy Appetite.

It's the avocado in the recipe that gives it the extra smooth texture. Krieger combines unsweetened cocoa powder, avocados, skim milk, coffee, honey and vanilla -- it is that simple. The pudding dessert is best served after being chilled for about an hour. After it is chilled, try adding a few garnishes such as coconut, orange zest and sea salt. These little extras will bring out the flavors and enhance the decadent experience.
Trend Themes
1. Healthy Desserts - This trend of creating healthy dessert alternatives opens up opportunities for businesses to innovate and offer guilt-free indulgences.
2. Gluten-free Food - The increasing demand for gluten-free options presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for the food industry to create new products and cater to a wider customer base.
3. Alternative Ingredients - Exploring unconventional ingredients like avocados in traditional recipes provides a chance for culinary innovators to create unique and nutritious dishes.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage - The food and beverage industry can capitalize on the trend of blended avocado desserts by offering innovative avocado-based products and expanding their dessert menus.
2. Healthy Snacks - The trend of healthy desserts presents an opportunity for the healthy snacks industry to develop avocado-based snacks that satisfy consumers' sweet cravings while promoting overall wellness.
3. Plant-based Foods - The use of avocados in desserts aligns with the growing plant-based food trend, opening up possibilities for the plant-based food industry to introduce avocado-based sweet treats as a healthier alternative.
