Instructions
Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh from the skins into the bowl of a food processor (or high powered blender). Blend on high until perfectly smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl if necessary. This may take a couple minutes.
Add the remaining ingredients to the food processor and puree until smooth and well combined. Again, make sure you scrape down the sides of the bowl if you need to. Taste and add additional honey/maple syrup if it’s not quite sweet enough. You can also add a little more coconut/almond milk if the pudding is too thick. (It all depends on the size/ripeness of your avocados.)
Transfer pudding to small bowls or ramekins and serve with fancy toppings of your choice.
