Sweet Prune Fruit Pudding with Custard is Delicious

This prune fruit pudding made with the fruit compote is so delicious. What makes this pudding so special is being topped with the vegan custard. Also, what I really like about it is that there is no sugar added.

Yes, prunes will help you poop and they are also a nutritious superfood. They are full of many amazing health benefits from helping with constipation to lowering blood pressure to even helping with weight loss.  They are good for diabetics as they have a low glycemic index , so they don’t spike blood sugar.  Prunes also help prevent bone loss and improve liver function and are a great source of dietary fiber, potassium and vitamin K.  So do enjoy a healthy prune or two as these dried plums are a tasty sweet treat and a sweet prune fruit pudding is a delicious way to enjoy them.

When you eat cherries, you enjoy much more than just their amazing taste. They’re packed with antioxidants and offer many health benefits, including help with insomnia, joint pain and belly fat. Cherries could be just what the doctor ordered.

Almonds – Almonds are very tasty and so beneficial for our health. They are my favourite nut; most mornings I add 7 to 10 almonds to my breakfast.

Arrowroot and kudzu are high-quality starches that will add amazing texture and taste to your custards and puddings. I’m happy I discovered them in my macrobiotic (grain-based diet) days. I used to bake with cornstarch like most people — which is not a healthy ingredient. Find out more about Arrowroot for Gluten-Free and Vegan Recipes.

As I don’t use sugar for my baking I often use stevia which is the healthy option.  The stevia plant is incredibly sweet and also incredibly good for you.  The leaf is 30 times sweeter than sugar while extracts are 300-400 times sweeter.  The best stevia will, therefore, be the one that retains some whole food value and is water-based.  Liquid forms will be less processed.  Go here to learn How to Get the Best Stevia Without the Bitterness.

Millions of people are using packaged Almond Milk because they believe it is a ‘healthy milk alternative.’ A half-gallon of almond milk (Silk or Almond Breeze, original unsweetened) has 240 calories.  One pound of almonds has 2,624 calories.  If you assume there are no other major sources of calories and nothing is removed, that means a whole half-gallon carton of almond milk has less than a handful of almonds. (about  1.5 ounces).  I make my own almond milk which is easy to do as well as affordable and way better for the environment.  You can easily learn how to make almond milk from scratch at home and use all-natural healthy ingredients, no sugar, and only Organic Unpasteurized Almonds

Himalayan Salt is actually good for you! 100% NATURAL PINK & CERTIFIED: Sherpa Pink Himalayan Salt is is Kosher Certified, Non-GMO, and does not contain any MSG, Soy, Gluten, Dairy, or anti-caking agents.
