Coconut chocolate millet pudding (vegan, GF)

April 3, 2017 By travellingoven 8 Comments

Do you use millet in your diet? I use it often and love it, it’s so quick to cook and there is so much you can do with it. Millet is such a great ingredient and it can be used for both savoury and sweet dishes, it’s very healthy, gluten-free and easy to digest. It is also a good source of iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc and vitamin B, rich in fiber and has low glycemic index. Did I convince you yet? 😀

After cooking you can use it in salads, in dishes where you would usually use cous-cous, as a sweet or savoury porridge or in desserts. This time I used it for incredibly delicious, creamy and chocolaty pudding where you would never guess that there is millet as the main ingredient! This  Coconut chocolate millet pudding is a great little treat that everybody can enjoy, also people who can’t tolerate gluten or dairy and I hope you’ll give it a try! It also gives you a great excuse to eat dessert for breakfast and that’s always a plus in my book… 😉

On another note, Spring has definitely arrived and we are having beautiful magnolias blossoming all around the city, it’s so pretty and I wish they would last forever! It’s also so warm that we literally went from coats to short sleeves and I wonder if it’s going to stay like this all the way to the Summer or the nature will surprise us with some colder days. Last year this time of the year I was still living in the Swiss Alps and if I can remember it well I believe we had snow and not a sign of Spring just yet. Down in the valley yes but up in the mountains where we lived it was still cold and the Spring was yet to come… To see some of beautiful Switzerland in Spring you can see this blog post…

I can’t believe that Easter is in about two weeks, how did that happen!? It’s a bit scary how the time flies but than again its’ nice to have all these different seasons and holidays and beautiful seasonal food to enjoy, don’t you think?! 🙂 I’ve been quite busy with various projects but I will do my best to post at least one Easter inspired blog post until than so stay tuned… You can always subscribe to my blog by just writing your email address in the ‘subscribe’ box, it’s the best way not to miss any of the new blog posts!

      Thank you so much Nisha, that makes me very happy to hear! Oh millet is great in puddings, I also have apricot vanilla millet pudding here on the blog and it’s also delicious even if chocolate is my number one choice! 😀

          Hi, thanks for trying out the recipe and I’m glad you liked the flavour! This pudding isn’t entirely smooth but if that is something that bothers you, I guess you could blended it for a while longer.

    Tried it and I love it. I put a bit more millet to get a thicker consistency 🙂

I haven’t posted anything in a while so wanted t I haven’t posted anything in a while so wanted to say hello! 😊 My Summer has been a combination of precious time with family and friends, swimming in the mornings on ‘my beach’ in Dubrovnik, some interesting shoots, ice creams and watermelon, mum’s delicious food, reading books on my favourite terrace in the world, laughing with my niece and nephew until my stomach hurts from laughter and many other ‘ordinary’ beautiful moments. Summer is still here but I’m slowly getting excited about the next season and all the beauty it brings! ☺️❤️

Before I post on the blog a travel story from my t Before I post on the blog a travel story from my trip to Tuscany and its charming towns, here are some images from one of my favourite, San Quirico d’Orcia. I liked it even more because it was raining and the mood was just so special and beautiful! 
☺️🌧️
This trip was all about smaller towns so we didn’t even go to Florence on this occasion but we visited 12 towns in 5 days and I can’t wait to share with you my favourite photos from the trip! ❤️
