A smooth, decadent, and rich low carb sugar-free chocolate pudding that is so creamy, you won't believe it is good for you!
Homemade sugar-free pudding recipes are so much healthier than the box variety and taste so much better, too.
Everyone needs a good, basic sugar-free chocolate pudding recipe.
This recipe was originally developed for my Best Brownie Delight recipe. (If you haven't tried that yet, you need to put it on your list – it is my favorite!)
But this keto chocolate pudding was so good that I decided it needed a post all to itself!
Low Carb Chocolate Pudding
This sugar-free pudding has more of a dark chocolate flavor, but my husband (who usually does not like dark chocolate), absolutely loved it!
I know people will ask about the coconut milk, but it does not have a strong coconut flavor. The fat in the coconut milk is what gives it such a creamy, decadent mouthfeel.
So make sure you use a full-fat coconut milk for this pudding recipe. (You'll want the kind of coconut milk found in a can, not a carton.)

Soft Set Sugar-Free Pudding Recipe
This sugar-free pudding is more of a soft-set pudding, and it will take a couple of hours to chill in the refrigerator. But it is worth the wait!
Just be sure to plan ahead a few hours before you want to eat it.
Since this pudding uses full-fat coconut milk, it is also dairy-free!
If you want, feel free to top with a dollop of stevia-sweetened whipped topping, or a squirt of Fat-Free Reddi Whip.
Or, you can eat this chocolatey goodness all by itself! This is a low-carb chocolate treat you will want to make again and again.
What Is The Difference Between Chocolate Mousse and Chocolate Pudding
The most significant difference between chocolate mousse and chocolate pudding is the texture. Mousse tends to be a little lighter in texture and fluffier, where pudding offers a velvety and smooth texture.
Sugar Free Pudding Ingredients
For my keto pudding recipe, I used just five ingredients!
- Canned coconut milk to add a creamy and velvety texture
- Cocoa powder for the chocolate flavor
- Gentle Sweet for sweetness
- Vanilla extract
- Gelatin to help it set up
- (Plus some water)
This chocolate pudding is hands down delicious and perfect for any occasion.
What is Sugar Free Pudding Sweetened With?
Most sugar-free puddings use artificial sweeteners such as sucralose or aspartame. These are not the best options for sugar-free pudding, so I encourage you to try a natural sweetener in your homemade pudding.
This is why in my recipe I use an all natural sweetener – Gentle Sweet!
Gentle Sweet is a blend of xylitol, erythritol, and stevia. If you do not have Gentle Sweet, you can make your own homemade Gentle Sweet with this Low Carb Powdered Sugar Recipe.
Can you Have Sugar Free Pudding on Keto?
Since most store-bought sugar-free puddings are sweetened with artificial sweeteners such as sucralose or aspartame, they are not keto-friendly.
But if you make your own homemade keto pudding, they are mostly definitely on the keto plan!
Is Sugar-Free Pudding Low Carb?
I can't say that store-bought sugar-free puddings are low-carb, but my Chocolate Pudding Recipe is definitely low-carb.
One serving only has 5 net carbs.
How to Make Sugar Free Dairy Free Chocolate Pudding
For this recipe, you are simply going to combine the coconut milk, cocoa powder, Gentle Sweet, and vanilla in a saucepan on the stove.
Whisking it well prevents any clumps and ensures a smooth pudding.
Then you "bloom" the gelatin (see full instructions in the recipe card) to help it dissolve easily in the hot pudding mixture.
Add the gelatin to the pudding mixture, then pour into 4 ramekins (this is a super cute set)!
Next, add a layer of Saran wrap directly on top of each pudding (see photo below). This keeps the pudding from forming a "skin" on the top layer.
How Long Does It Take Pudding To Set
This chocolate pudding recipe takes a few hours to set up in the refrigerator.
This is the hardest part, is resisting the urge to want to gobble it all up before it has time to set up in the fridge. BUT, when I say it is worth the wait, I genuinely mean it.
So my chocolate pudding is low carb, sugar-free, and dairy free. Plus THM-S if you follow the Trim Healthy Mama program.
How Long Does Pudding Last
You can keep your pudding in the fridge for up to five days. Anything after that you might consider tossing it out, as it can go bad. We generally have ours eaten within the first 2-3 days.
Tips for Making this Dairy Free Pudding Recipe
It is important to place a layer of plastic wrap directly in contact with the pudding (see photo above). This keeps the pudding from forming a layer on top.
I used Gentle Sweet for this recipe, but you could use my Low Carb Powdered Sugar in equal amounts, or you can use your sweetener of choice.
Can I use Xanthan Gum to replace Gelatin?
Absolutely! To substitute xanthan gum for gelatin, simply cut the amount in half.
For example, in this pudding recipe, you would use 7/8 teaspoon of xanthan to replace the gelatin. (Just over 3/4 teaspoon)
You would also omit the 1/4 cup of water and simply sprinkle the xanthan gum into the pudding mixture at the same step as when you would normally add the gelatin.
