Pumpkin Pie Chia Seed Pudding
Pumpkin Chia Pudding
½ Cup Pumpkin Puree
1 tsp. Pumpkin Spice
1 tsp. Cinnamon
3 Tbsp. Honey or Maple Syrup (to make it vegan)
7 Tbs. of Chia Seeds
1 ½ Cups of Almond Milk
1 packet of truvia (optional)
Put all the ingredients in a large bowl and mix everything together. It’s best to put the chia seeds in last because if you put them in first they get stuck to the bottom and it’s harder to mix everything together. Put in the refrigerator overnight or for about 4 to 6 hours and voila! Instant and delicious pumpkin pudding to have in the morning or for a delicious snack; this pudding will not only take care of your pumpkin pie cravings but it will help fill you up.
Lazy Way:
If you don’t feel like bring out all your measuring tools you can always guesstimate on all the ingredients to the taste. The only thing I definitely suggest is measuring out the almond milk and chia seeds to make sure that your pudding is not too liquidly or dry. Then taste a little bit of it to make sure it’s what you desired and pop it into the fridge.
