Blueberry & Banana Pudding

I made this for my flatmates last night to eat while we watched a movie. It’s really easy if you keep chopped frozen bananas in the freezer and have a jar of buckwheaties on hand. It probably took 10 minutes to whip up.

Ingredients

  • 2 frozen bananas (chopped)
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries
  • 1 small avocado
  • 1 tbsp honey, agave or a couple of dates (whichever you prefer)
  • 1/2 cup dried coconut
  • 1/2 cup buckwheaties

Method

Pudding:

  1. Place the chopped frozen banana, avocado, blueberries and your sweetener of choice into a food processor or high speed blender and blend until smooth.
  2. Spoon into bowls and sprinkle with coconut and buckwheaties for a bit of crunch!

Buckwheaties:

  1. Soak whole buckwheat groats in water for about 8 hrs.
  2. Use a sieve to drain and thoroughly rinse the buckwheat.
  3. Spread the buckwheat over mesh dehydrator tray and dehydrate 8-12hrs or until fully dry and crunchy.
  4. Another optional extra is to add cinnamon and honey, maple syrup or agave nectar before dehydrating.
