Ingredients

¼ cup Chia Seeds (note 1)
1 cup Almond Milk (note 2)
¼ cup Pumpkin Puree (note 3)
2 tbsp Maple Syrup (note 4)
½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
½ teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spices (note 5)

To serve

2 tablespoons Pecans finely chopped
2 teaspoons Maple Syrup to coat the nuts, optional
1 pinch Pumpkin Pie Spices

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

In a small jar - I am using an old jam jar - add chia seeds, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spices, milk, vanilla, and maple syrup.
Use a fork to stir everything well together, then close the lid of the jar and shake. If you don't have a lid, keep stirring well with the fork.
Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap, refrigerate for at least 2 hours (I recommend leaving them for the night), stirring the mixture with a fork a few times during the first 15 minutes to prevent the chia seeds from lumping.
The next day, stir again for a minute to combine the spices and serve with chopped pecans - I coated mine with 2 teaspoons of maple syrup.
Sprinkle extra pumpkin pie spices on top before serving.

Equipment

Glass Jar (15 Oz)

Notes

Note 1: You can use white or black chia seeds. They work the same.

Note 2: You can use any milk you like for this recipe. Soy milk will increase the protein in the pudding.

Note 3: I am using canned pumpkin puree, which is made from organic pumpkin, no added sugar, no added oil. You can use homemade pumpkin puree.

Note 4: Any liquid sweetener can be used, like agave syrup or coconut nectar.

Note 5: Or cinnamon

Protein booster: You can add a scoop of protein powder to the pudding, but you will need at least an extra 1/4 cup of milk, or the texture will be too dry. You can serve the pudding with high-protein yogurt, like soy yogurt or hemp seeds.

Storage: You can store the pudding in the fridge in sealed airtight jars for up to 3 days.
