How to Make Kardashian-Style Avocado Pudding in Your Kitchen
Step 1: Start by scooping 2 ripe avocados into your blender. They should be soft, with a slight give when pressed.
Step 2: Add 1/4 cup of honey or agave syrup for sweetness, or adjust to your taste. Think: gooey, floral, with a hint of caramel.
Step 3: Pour in 1/2 cup of coconut milk or almond milk, enough to blend everything into a silky smooth texture.
Step 4: Blend on high for 30 seconds, stopping to scrape down sides if needed. The mixture should be velvety, with no lumps.
Step 5: Taste and adjust sweetness or add a squeeze of lemon juice for brightness. The pudding should have a fresh, zingy note.
Step 6: Transfer to serving bowls and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. The cold helps the flavors meld and the texture firm up.
Step 7: Before serving, give it a gentle stir. The pudding should be creamy, with a slight jiggle when shaken.

Method
- Scoop the ripe avocados into your blender. They should be soft and yield slightly when pressed, making them easy to blend into a smooth pudding.
- Add the honey or agave syrup to the blender for natural sweetness. Pour in the coconut milk or almond milk to help achieve a silky, creamy texture.
- Blend everything on high for about 30 seconds, stopping to scrape down the sides with a spatula if needed. The mixture should become velvety, with no lumps remaining.
- Add the lemon juice to the blender to brighten the flavor and cut through the richness of the avocado. Blend again for a few seconds to incorporate.
- Transfer the smooth pudding into your serving bowls using a spatula, gently scraping down the sides to get every bit of the luscious mixture.
- Cover the bowls and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Chilling allows the flavors to meld and the pudding to firm up slightly, enhancing its creamy texture.
- Before serving, give the pudding a gentle stir if needed, then garnish with your favorite toppings like berries, toasted coconut, or a sprinkle of sea salt for added flavor and visual appeal.
Notes
Cooking Checkpoints and Tips
- Make sure avocados are perfectly ripe for maximum creaminess.
- If the pudding tastes flat, add a splash more lemon or a pinch of salt.
- Watch the blending process—over-blending can make it too thin, under-blending leaves lumps.
- If it’s too thick after chilling, stir in a little more coconut milk to loosen it up.
Common Mistakes and How to Fix Them
- Pudding tastes flat or bland.? ADD A LITTLE MORE LEMON IF FLAVORS ARE TOO MILD.
- Pudding becomes too runny or foamy.? DON’T OVER-BLEND; pulse gently if pudding starts to become too thin.
- Too soft or runny texture.? Chill longer if pudding isn’t setting well.
- Unripe avocados making the pudding bitter.? Use ripe avocados to avoid bitterness or greenness.
This pudding is a little indulgent, a little unexpected, and a whole lot of satisfying. It’s perfect for those moments when you need a sweet escape but also want something nourishing. Feel free to sprinkle on some toasted coconut or a few berries for color and crunch. It’s simple, honest, and a little bit luxurious—just how I like my desserts.
