Ingredients You’ll Need

• ½ cup milk or non-dairy milk: This adds the creaminess. Almond, oat, or coconut milk can be good substitutes.
• ⅓ cup keto sweetener: Adjust this to your taste preferences. You can use erythritol, monk fruit, or any sweetener of your choice.
• ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder: This gives the pudding its rich chocolate flavor. Look for high-quality cocoa for the best taste.
• 1 tsp vanilla extract: A splash of vanilla enhances the overall flavor and adds a slight warmth.

How to Make Hard Boiled Egg Chocolate Pudding

1. Prep the Ingredients: Start by peeling the hard-boiled eggs, ensuring their whites are intact and free of shell fragments. Place them into a high-speed blender or food processor.
2. Add Remaining Ingredients: Pour in ½ cup of milk, ⅓ cup of your chosen keto sweetener, ⅓ cup of unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
3. Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. If necessary, stop and scrape down the sides to ensure everything is well mixed.
4. Taste and Adjust: Take a moment to taste your pudding! If you want it sweeter or more chocolatey, feel free to add more sweetener or cocoa and blend again.
5. Chill the Pudding: Transfer the mixture to serving bowls or individual cups and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30–60 minutes before serving. This helps the flavors meld together beautifully.

Storing & Reheating

Store any leftover pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you want to save it for longer, consider freezing it, where it can last for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy again, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight. If the texture seems a bit off after freezing, simply blend it again to restore its creamy consistency.

Chef’s Helpful Tips

• To avoid a grainy texture, ensure your eggs are blended thoroughly until fully smooth.
• Use room temperature eggs and milk for easier blending and a creamier consistency.
• If you’re looking for a thicker pudding, reduce the amount of milk slightly or add an extra egg for richness.
• For an artistic touch, top with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries before serving.
• Feel free to play with flavors! A pinch of cinnamon or a splash of espresso can elevate your pudding even more.
