Making a Tasty Keto Chocolate Pudding
I admit I really struggled with how to make a good keto chocolate pudding.
When you consider that the main ingredient in most chocolate puddings is flour or cornstarch, you can appreciate my dilemma!
It took me ENTIRELY too long to realize that really, all I needed was some way to thicken the pudding. It didn’t have to be flour.
Enter the indomitable egg.
Yup, like I said. Took me way too long to figure out this simple hack!
But luckily for all of us, I did, and it worked, and so we can all now enjoy a great Keto Chocolate pudding that tastes like real pudding!

- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/3 cup Truvia
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, almond milk, Truvia, cocoa, egg, and xanthan gum and whisk well. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking frequently,. Do not let the pudding come to a rolling boil. You want to cook it gently and slowly.
Continue to heat and whisk until the pudding is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. You may need to add a little extra xanthan gum at this point.
Remove from heat, then whisk in the vanilla extract.
Pour into a container, cover, and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
Serve with whipped cream.
