While browsing the Paleo in Portland blog, I came across this tempting butternut squash pudding, which she, in turn, had adapted from paleOMG’s Sugar Detox Carrot Cake Pudding.
Having neither carrots nor butternut squash on hand, I decided to take it up another notch and make pumpkin pudding. This recipe is adapted from both Paleo in Portland and paleOMG.
15 oz. puréed pumpkin (1 can) – or use fresh!
2 Tbsp coconut milk
2 Tbsp almond butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp honey (optional*)
1. Add all ingredients to a food processor and purée to desired smoothness. For a silkier finish, drizzle in more coconut milk, a tiny bit at a time.
That’s it! Enjoy!
Serves 2-4.
Of course, I made this non-paleo by adding whipped cream to the top! But it’s pretty wonderful on its own, too. If I’d had any grated coconut, I would’ve used it.
*I buy local, raw honey from Round Rock at the Austin Farmer’s Market.

Awesome and yum! Thanks for the shout-out too 😉
No, thank YOU for giving me this idea! Yummy, yummy, indeed.
This sounds great & very easy besides! I don’t do paleo, but I definitely do pudding. 🙂
My partner ate the whole bowl in under a minute.
I made a half recipe of this and my son and I ate it in no time. He called it ice cream because the puree was still a bit frozen when I blended it up. Very satisfying!
Question, I can’t have almond butter… what would you suggest as a good substitute? Or would it be okay without it?
I made a batch without it, and it was pretty great, actually! My partner ate it all up before I could turn around!

Howdy would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with? I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m having a difficult time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
WordPress! Twenty Eleven theme.
Made this delightful desert, wow! I love it ,Thank You for the recipe!
On Christmas Day?! Glad you enjoyed it!

Sounds delicious! Plan on making it this weekend! BTW you can top it with coconut cream instead of whipping cream. Plus maybe even some finely chopped nuts! 🙂
Thx for sharing!
Hi Stella,
This looks wonderful – I can’t wait to try it! Thank you! =0)
