Description

Pumpkin Chia Seed Pudding: A creamy, no-cook autumn dessert featuring pumpkin puree and chia seeds.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup canned pumpkin purée
  • 1½ cups milk of choice (almond, oat, dairy, etc.)
  • 3 tbsp chia seeds
  • 23 tbsp maple syrup or honey (to taste)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or ½ tsp cinnamon + ¼ tsp nutmeg + ¼ tsp ginger)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional toppings: Coconut whipped cream, Granola, Pumpkin seeds, A sprinkle of cinnamon

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl or jar, whisk together the pumpkin, milk, maple syrup, vanilla, spices, and salt until smooth.
  2. Stir in the chia seeds and mix well.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, stirring once after the first 30 minutes to prevent clumping.
  4. Once thickened, give it a good stir and top with your favorite toppings before serving.

Notes

  • Chia seeds per day: commonly 1–2 tablespoons; this recipe uses 3 tablespoons total, divided over 2–3 servings. You can adjust to your preferred portion.
  • Pumpkin puree provides fiber and beta-carotene; choose unsweetened canned pumpkin for a clean flavor.
  • To make it vegan, use a plant-based milk and maple syrup instead of honey.
  • Chill time: at least 4 hours; can be prepared in advance as a make-ahead treat.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days.
  • If you have a chia seed allergy or are avoiding seeds, omit or substitute with flaxseed.
