Equipment
- 1 bowl or jar with a lid
Ingredients
- ½ cup pumpkin puree
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- ½ tablespoon pure maple syrup add more to taste
- ¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- ½ cup unsweetened almond milk or any plant milk
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, milk, and pumpkin pie spice until smooth.
- Add chia seeds and whisk well to remove any lumps.
- Cover and chill for at least 2 hours or overnight for a thicker pudding. Serve topped with peanut butter, chopped walnuts, or your favorite toppings.
Notes
- Adjust sweetness: Pumpkin puree varies in sweetness, so start with less maple syrup and add more after chilling if needed.
- Crunchy toppings: Add chopped nuts, seeds, or granola just before serving for extra texture.

- Spice swap: No pumpkin pie spice? Mix cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and ginger for a warm fall flavor.
