Description

Strawberry Banana Pudding Dream is a luscious plant-based dessert combining ripe bananas and fresh strawberries to create a naturally sweet, creamy pudding with a silky texture. Enhanced with natural gelling agents, maple syrup (natural), and vanilla extract (natural), this vibrant and refreshing pudding is perfect for any occasion and easy to customize with your favorite fruits or toppings.

Ingredients

Scale

Fruits

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • Additional fresh strawberries for garnish

Base & Sweeteners

  • 1 cup plant-based dairy (e.g., coconut cream or cashew-based cream alternative)
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Setting Agent

  • 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons natural gelling agent

Optional Garnishes

  • Crushed plant-based nuts or granola
  • Drizzle of maple syrup (natural)
  • Fresh mint leaves

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fruits: Peel the ripe bananas and slice them into chunks for easy blending. Hull the fresh strawberries and cut them into halves or quarters depending on their size. Set aside a few whole strawberries for garnish.
  2. Blend the Base: In a high-speed blender, combine the banana chunks, most of the strawberries, plant-based dairy, maple syrup (natural), lemon juice, and vanilla extract (natural). Blend until smooth and creamy, ensuring the mixture is well combined with a silky finish.
  3. Incorporate the Natural Gelling Agent: Gently heat the natural gelling agent with a small portion of the blended mixture on low heat until it dissolves completely. Mix this warm gelling mixture back into the main pudding base, stirring carefully to distribute evenly.
  4. Chill and Set: Pour the pudding mixture into individual serving glasses or a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 to 4 hours, or until it is gently set but still soft and creamy. The pudding will thicken beautifully during this time.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, top with a few fresh strawberries. Optionally, sprinkle with crushed nuts or granola or drizzle with maple syrup (natural) for added texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use fully ripe bananas to ensure natural sweetness and a smooth texture.
  • Chill the pudding thoroughly to achieve the perfect silky set.
  • Choose fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and vibrant color.
  • Heat the natural gelling agent gently to prevent lumps and maintain smoothness.
  • Try layering slices of banana and strawberry in serving jars for an attractive presentation.
