Last night I was scouring the internet looking for some dessert recipes I could turn into raw vegan versions. I didn't actually find a recipe for an orange pudding but somehow it got lodged in my brain and stayed there. So I made it. At 10:00 PM while dancing to lame pop music. Yep. The idea to add lavender came this morning, while I was setting up the pudding for photos. I know I say this about a ton of things like chocolate, dates, bananas, coconut, etc. - but you really can't go wrong with lavender!
The recipe can't get much simpler or more whole-foods: blend some cashews, dates and oranges. Add some coconut oil and put it in the fridge. Sorted (as they say in the UK)! The next morning you have a luscious, sweet citrus infused treat to enjoy at anytime of the day because it's so healthy. Pudding for breakfast? Excellent. Lunch? Good choice. Snack? Go for it. Dinner? Alright, you must really like pudding. You should probably eat something else with dinner. Weirdo.
orange lavender pudding: serves 4
2 peeled oranges
1 cup cashews
1 cup dates
1-2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
1 teaspoon dried lavender flowers
Blend all the ingredients until smooth. If it is too thick, add the juice of another orange or two. Scoop into small, single serving dishes (like ramekins) and leave in the fridge overnight. The next day decorate the pudding with orange zest and slices, and more lavender flowers if you like. Get sexy with it.

[ Smiles ] Thank you for sharing the orange lavender pudding recipe; it looks delicous!
You have the best Raw foods site I have ever seen!!! I am looking forward to trying especially the carrot cake soon!
Would it be beneficial to soak the cashews first? Would it make the pudding creamier??
Mhhmm, this sounds delicious and is on my To Do list for next weekend! I have already tried out and love so many of your recipies. And your photography is great!

Totally with you on the lavender!! Looks so good and so easy peasy :-) I kill it in the kitchen to crappy pop music- it's the best.
Holla!

Thank you so much!
Hey Em, could you make this in a food processor or does it need to be done in a vitamix? Just discovered your blog, and I bloody love it. Thank you!
Charlie
is there a possible replacement for the coconut oil? or will it hold up without?
Hi I have made this twice substituting dates for prunes and it is absolutely delicious!!! I can't seem to get my pudding to a completely smooth consistency-how do you achieve this? How long do you blend it for?
