Ingredients List
- 1 box (1.4 oz) sugar-free pistachio pudding mix
- 1 cup unsweetened Greek yogurt (or regular yogurt)
- 1 cup heavy cream (or light cream)
- 1 cup pineapple chunks, drained (fresh or canned)
- 1 cup mandarin oranges, drained
- 1 tbsp powdered erythritol (or other preferred sweetener)
- Optional: ½ cup chopped pistachios (for extra crunch)
- Optional: 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Whipped cream for topping (optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Pudding Base
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the sugar-free pistachio pudding mix with the Greek yogurt. Add 1 cup of heavy cream and powdered erythritol (or sweetener of choice), and mix thoroughly until smooth and well-combined. For extra creaminess, you can also add vanilla extract at this stage.
Step 2: Fold in the Fruit
Gently fold in the drained pineapple chunks and mandarin oranges into the pudding mixture. If you like, you can reserve a few pieces of fruit for garnish later.
Step 3: Chill
Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until the fluff has set. This will allow the flavors to meld together and give the dessert its airy texture.
Step 4: Garnish and Serve
Before serving, top with a dollop of whipped cream and, if desired, sprinkle chopped pistachios on top for extra crunch. Garnish with a few extra pieces of mandarin oranges or pineapple for added color and texture.
