Ingredients

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1/2 cup pumpkin puree (canned or fresh)

1/4 cup chia seeds

2 tablespoons maple syrup (adjust for sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or a mixture of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger)

Pinch of salt

Optional toppings: sliced bananas, walnuts, granola, or a dollop of whipped cream

Instructions

In a bowl, whisk together the almond milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and a pinch of salt until well combined.

Stir in the chia seeds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

Cover the bowl or transfer the mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid and thicken the pudding.

After the chilling period, give the pudding a good stir. If it’s too thick, you can add a splash of almond milk to reach your desired consistency.

Serve in bowls or jars, and top with your choice of sliced bananas, walnuts, granola, or a whipped cream dollop before enjoying.
