Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Cashew Cream
  • 2 Ripe Bananas
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground Turmeric (Optional)

Instructions
 

  • First, add the cashew cream to a blender or food processor. Next, add the ripe bananas, pure vanilla extract, and ground turmeric.
  • Place the lid on your blender and blend on a medium setting until smooth. It should only take about 15 - 30 seconds.
    Once your Banana Pudding is smooth and creamy, pour it into individual cups or bowls to serve immediately. 
    This recipe yields a generous batch that can serve 4 - 6 people. So, if you won't be using it all right away, store any leftovers in an airtight container and keep it refrigerated.
    Enjoy this Pudding on its own, top with roasted nuts or layer it with oat flour graham crackers to keep it gluten-free. It's also delicious topped with cacao nibs, goji berries, and coconut flakes!

Notes

Omit or reduce the turmeric powder if you are making this for kids or dislike the flavour. Reducing the turmeric by half (⅛ teaspoon) is usually enough to mask the flavour.
Use cashew yogurt in place of the cashew cream for a probiotic-rich version.
Vanilla powder can be used as a substitute for vanilla extract.
