In cherry season, I love eating lots of cherries. This cherry vegan pudding is so easy to make and is raw so no cooking. Puddings are usually full of refined white sugar and made with cow’s milk which does not work for us who are lactose intolerant.
It is great for a hot summer day. The best part of this pudding is that it is delicious and filled with superfood nutrients.

Re: Cherry Vegan Pudding
How much water is needed to soak the cashews without losing to much of the natural flavor?
Cashews, soak for 3 – 4 hours covered in water. They don’t sprout because they are not a whole seed but soaking does makes them better for making puddings with. See post: SPROUTING NUTS & SEEDS
I am confused , this recipe states ” Now simply mix the cherries into the vanilla pudding.”, am I making the vanilla pudding or buying the boxed vanilla pudding ?
Meg. I have updated the recipe directions to make it clearer. Apologies, I was assuming that it was realized that you were making a raw vanilla pudding. Thank you for you question as I like to make my recipe directions very clear.
I’m going to give this a try today.
I’d like to substitute raw almonds for cashews. Will that work?
Karen, you can try soaked raw almonds. Problem is that they are not as creamy as cashews. Perhaps you could remove the skins and add a little coconut oil. If you do this, I would be very interested in learning how it worked for you. Wishing you the best in this.
Hi
I tried making the cherry pudding. I did not have good results. When you put the banana in the blender, and then the soaked cashews, what liquids do you put in with it. Otherwise, it does not mix well.
