How to Make Banana Date Tofu Pudding

  1. Press 1 block (14oz) firm or extra-firm tofu to remove excess water. Wrap in paper towels and place a heavy object on top for 10 minutes.
  2. Peel and chop 2 ripe bananas into chunks.
  3. Remove pits from 6 Medjool dates and roughly chop them.
  4. Cut the pressed tofu into small cubes.
  5. Combine the tofu cubes, banana chunks, chopped dates, 1 tablespoon corn oil, ½ cup water or soy milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt in a high-speed blender.
  6. Blend for 2-3 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed, until completely smooth with small date flecks remaining.
  7. Pour the pudding into 4 small (½ cup) resealable containers or a large bowl. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving for optimal flavor and texture.
