DIRECTIONS
- In a blender, combine all ingredients on low until uniformly broken up. With blender off, scrape down the sides of the jar, then cover and process on high until thickened and very well combined, about 5 minutes. The mixture will continue to thicken as it blends.
- Pour pudding evenly into six servings, about 1/2 cup in each, and refrigerate until chilled and thickened, at least 2 hours.
- Before serving, finely chop pistachios, and roughly chop freeze dried raspberries. Garnish pudding cups evenly with pistachios (about 1/8 ounce on each cup), and raspberry crumbs (about 1 ½ grams on each cup). Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. One pudding cup as described is one serving.
Cooking Tip
The surprise in this pudding is that you use hard boiled eggs as the base! As a blender pudding, the key is to blend all the ingredients really well so everything is completely incorporated. For this adaptation, we found that blending for longer, at least 5 minutes, encouraged thickening. A couple of hours in the refrigerator allows a true pudding texture to develop. We do not recommend freezing this pudding as the texture and flavor completely degrade when frozen and thawed. Note that without the pistachio and raspberry garnish, this keto friendly recipe is appropriate for Atkins 20 phase 1.
