Creative Ingredients
This S’mores Pudding Bowl is made with some creative healthy ingredients, and I assure you it tastes divine! My 8 year old son has declared it the food he “wants to eat for every meal.” The pudding is rich, creamy, and chocolatey. The marshmallow topping, made from aquafaba, is light, airy and totally legit!! I was eating both of these separately by the massive spoonfuls. Jackie notes in the recipe that there will be leftover marshmallow fluff after making the S’mores Pudding Bowls. I’m not quite sure what she is talking about – I had none leftover. 😉

S'mores Pudding Bowl from Vegan Bowl Attack
Ingredients
For the chocolate pudding:
- 1 ½ cups (345 g) mashed avocado
- ½ cup (40 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- ⅓ cup (59 g) Medjool dates, pitted and soaked in warm water for 15 minutes
- 1-2 tbsp (15 to 28 ml) date soaking water
- 3 tablespoons (45 ml) pure maple syrup
- ¼ teaspoon salt
For the marshmallow Fluff:
- ⅓ cup (80 ml) Aquafaba (the liquid drained from a can of chickpeas)
- ½ cup (120 g) organic superfine cane sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla powder
For the assembly:
- ¼ cup (21 g) vegan graham crackers, crushed
- ¼ cup (44 g) soy-free, nut-free vegan mini chocolate chips
Instructions
To make the chocolate pudding:
- Place all of the ingredients in a food processor and process with an s-blade until smooth. It may take a couple of minutes for the dates to break down. Add more date soaking water to the pudding if you think it is too thick. Refrigerate the pudding for 1 to 2 hours until chilled.
To make the marshmallow fluff:
- Put the Aquafina into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat the liquid on medium speed until foamy. Raise the speed to high and beat until the mixture has expanded considerably and forms peaks, about 15 to 20 minutes. With the mixer running, add the superfine sugar 2 tablespoons (30 g) at a time and then add the vanilla powder. The fluff should form soft peaks.
To assemble:
- Divide the pudding among 4 small bowls and then place about ⅓ cup (32 g) of marshmallow fluff into each bowl. Using a kitchen torch, toast the top of the fluff lightly. (If you do not have a torch, you can omit this step.) Top the dessert with the crushed graham crackers and chocolate chips. Serve immediately.

My favorite bowl recipe is the classic oatmeal bowl. It probably doesn’t count as a “bowl” recipe, but it’s made in a bowl so I’m going to count it nonetheless! I put in maple syrup, cocoa powder, cinnamon and pb2, and I eat a bowl every night before I go to bed.
Jenn S. says
Oh, it counts! And I always put cinnamon in my oatmeal too!
Ellie says
This s’mores bowl looks amazing!! And HEALTHY because of avocado, dates, and aquafaba? Who knew!? My favorite bowl right now is a smoothie bowl. I make my fave smoothie base- almond milk, spinach, strawberry, banana, and chia seeds- and top it with fruit and granola. SO GOOD! I also love veggie bowls when I just make quinoa and add roasted veggies to it. I’m also really into this chickpea “tuna” bowl that I’m posting on my blog tomorrow! I just love food in bowls. 🙂
Jenn S. says
Yup, healthy dessert – can’t go wrong with that! Your chickpea “tuna” bowl sounds awesome. I’ll hop over soon to check it out!

Mmm I love smoothie bowls. I make one with cooked sweet potato that we top with chia seeds and dark chocolate chips. My toddler and 8 month old both scarf it down. Such an awesome breakfast!
