    About This Recipe

    Pumpkin Chia Seed Pudding is a healthy and delicious breakfast or dessert recipe made using real pumpkin, milk, chia seeds, and pumpkin pie spice.

    This quick, no-cook recipe has a mousse-like consistency and comes together in just 5 minutes. It is gluten-free, refined sugar-free, nut-free, and can be made vegan or dairy-free as well.

    The recipe to make this Pumpkin Spice Latte Chia Pudding is inspired by my Pumpkin Chai Latte recipe. Serve it for a healthy fall or thanksgiving breakfast, snack or dessert.

    You can meal prep it too. Double or triple the recipe and transfer in individual covered mason jars and refrigerate for up to 4-5 days. Just grab one jar and you can have it on-the-go.

    Ingredients

    Pumpkin Chia Seed Pudding Ingredients.

    Chia Seeds are the star ingredient of this recipe. If you do not like their texture, blend the pudding in a blender before chilling.

    Pumpkin Puree – Make it at home using my homemade pumpkin puree recipe or buy a can.

    You can replace pumpkin puree with butternut squash or sweet potato puree too.

    Pumpkin Pie Spice – Make it at home using my pumpkin pie spice recipe or buy a bottle.

    Milk – I like to use whole milk to make this pudding as it makes it super creamy. However, you can use skim, low-fat or plant-based milk too.

    Maple Syrup – Sweeten the pudding with maple syrup. You can also use honey or agave nectar.

    Vanilla Extract – Adds a subtle sweetness with a hint of beautiful aroma.
