Ingredients
- 6 Tablespoons chia seeds (I used white chia seeds)
- 1½ cups almond milk or cashew milk or oat milk; unsweetened assumed
- ½ cup pumpkin puree canned or homemade
- 1 Tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 Tablespoon almond butter
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla optional
- Coconut whipped cream toppings; chopped pecans; and/or granola
- pecans
- granola
Instructions
- Stir together chia seeds, milk, pumpkin, maple syrup, almond butter, pumpkin pie spice and vanilla (if using) in a bowl.
- Let mixture soak for 5 minutes. Give it another stir to break up any clumps and divide mixture evenly between three containers.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight. You’ll want to wait until you’re ready to serve the chia pudding before adding your toppings.
- When you're ready to enjoy, top chia pudding with coconut whipped cream, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. You can also add granola, chopped pecans and /or an extra drizzle of almond butter.
- Store leftovers in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.
