Egg-White Tahini Chocolate Pudding
Low-GL, high-protein take on the viral boiled egg pudding – yolks swapped for tahini, almond milk base, honey at 35g with salt doing the balancing.
Ingredients
Hard-boiled eggs, whites only (5, about 165g whites)
Tahini, well-stirred (45 g)
Cocoa powder, Dutch-process if you have it (18 g)
Unsweetened almond milk (120 ml)
Honey (35 g)
Vanilla extract (9 g)
Fine salt (3/4 g)
Preparation
Boil eggs for 7 minutes – no longer, or sulfur flavors develop.
Move straight to an ice bath and chill fully.
Peel the cold eggs and separate out the whites. Save the yolks for something else.
Add the whites, tahini, cocoa powder, almond milk, honey, vanilla extract, and salt to a blender.
Blend on high until completely smooth – a full 1-2 minutes, scraping down once. Any graininess means keep blending.
Taste. If egg or tahini bitterness comes through, add another 5g of cocoa and blend again. If it needs sweetness, add allulose to taste. Thin with a splash of almond milk if too thick.
Portion into four ~100g servings (ramekins or small jars) and refrigerate at least 2 hours. It thickens as it sets and tastes better cold. Keeps up to 4 days covered.
Notes
Serving size: 4 portions of ~100g each (about a standard ramekin), roughly 130 kcal, 7-8g protein, ~8g net carbs per serving. Almond milk drops the lactose sweetness, so taste at the blend stage – if it needs more, add allulose rather than honey to keep the GL flat. Blend longer than feels necessary; the whites-plus-tahini emulsion needs the time.
