Description
Pumpkin Chia Pudding is a creamy, spiced, and nutrient-rich breakfast or dessert made with wholesome ingredients like pumpkin puree, chia seeds, and almond milk. Perfect for meal prep, it’s packed with fiber, omega-3s, and plant-based protein — keeping you full and energized for hours.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1–2 teaspoons maple syrup (optional)
- ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves)
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt
- Optional toppings: sliced banana, pumpkin seeds, coconut yogurt, crushed nuts, cinnamon dust
Instructions
- In a bowl or jar, combine pumpkin puree, chia seeds, almond milk, pumpkin pie spice, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Stir well (or shake the jar) until everything is combined. Let it sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours — overnight is ideal.
- Stir again before serving. Add a splash of milk if too thick, or a bit more chia if too thin and wait 15 minutes.
- Top with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
Notes
Use organic canned pumpkin puree (not pie filling) for best flavor and consistency. Store in mason jars for up to 5 days in the fridge. Rotate toppings to keep it exciting.
