Gluten Free Dessert -
Chocolate Avocado Mousse
Are you having trouble finding a quick and easy gluten free dessert recipe? Many desserts are full of ingredients that are not allowed on the gluten free diet but we all like something sweet occasionally, don't we? Here is a simple but tasty avocado recipe that may fit the bill!
The avocado pear is high in protein and carbohydrate. It also contains oils that are not only good for you internally but, due to the vitamin E content, are also great for both your skin and hair. Add in Vitamins B and C, as well as a rich source of potassium and this fruit is seriously good food!
If you are also searching for dairy-free desserts due to lactose intolerance or if you are on a gluten free casein free diet (cfgf diet) then this will also be suitable for you.
Ingredients per person
- 1 avocado
- 1-2 tsp gluten free cocoa powder
- 1-2 tsp honey
- 1-2 tsp oil
- Pinch of salt
- Quarter cup water
Remove the flesh from the avocado, blend it with the other ingredients then put the mixture into individual cups or bowls. Refrigerate and enjoy. Simple!
Tips and variations
Play with the ratio between cocoa and honey in this recipe to suit your taste.
