Pumpkin Chia Seed Pudding (Pumpkin Chia Seed Pudding)
Indulge in a creamy, nutritious dessert that’s bursting with fall flavors—perfect for a cozy evening treat!
In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of chia seeds, 1 cup of pumpkin puree, 2 cups of almond milk, 3 tablespoons of maple syrup, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
Whisk the mixture thoroughly for about 2 minutes until all the ingredients are well combined and the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until the pudding has thickened and the chia seeds have absorbed the liquid.
If you want a smoother texture, you can blend the pudding briefly until creamy.
Once set, stir the pudding and serve it in individual bowls or jars, garnished with extra cinnamon or a drizzle of maple syrup.
