Easy Keto Pudding (Made 3 Ways)

Keto Recipes > Keto Dessert Recipes

Our easy keto pudding is made even better with three different flavors to choose from, vanilla, chocolate, and coconut cream. Almond milk, gelatin, heavy cream, and erythritol combine for an incredibly rich, silky-smooth texture that will leave you coming back for more—and with multiple flavors to choose from, why would you not?


Pudding is one of those desserts that is reminiscent of a hug in every mouthful. Whether you have fond memories of after-dinner puddings as a kid, or you’re just looking for something quick to whip up when the sweet craving hits, look no further. The base of the pudding lies in the gelatin and almond milk mix, which combine with heavy cream to ensure the pudding has that signature thick and creamy look and feel.

As we mentioned earlier, there are multiple flavors to this pudding, which can be attributed to various add-ins. For vanilla, keep it classic with vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Vanilla pairs beautifully with some fresh fruit, so serve the pudding with a side of blueberries or berries of your choice.

Lean into the richness of chocolate with cocoa powder, vanilla extract (for extra depth of sweetness), and some salt to bring out the darker notes in the cocoa. Why not dust over some cocoa on the top of each pudding as well? The coconut cream recipe replaces heavy cream with canned coconut cream and unsweetened coconut flakes for a delightful crunch with every bite.
