Pumpkin Chia Pudding 🎃🥄🍂 Creamy, Spiced, and Naturally Sweetened

This pudding blends pumpkin purée, warm spices, and chia seeds into a thick, custard-like treat. It’s loaded with fiber, naturally sweet, and perfect for make-ahead breakfasts, snacks, or light desserts.

Ingredients (Serves 3–4)

  • 1½ cups milk (dairy or unsweetened almond, oat, or coconut milk)
  • ½ cup pumpkin purée (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 3 tbsp pure maple syrup (or honey)
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • Pinch of cloves (optional)
  • ½ cup chia seeds

Instructions

Step 1: Mix the base

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, pumpkin, maple syrup, vanilla, and spices until smooth.

Step 2: Add chia seeds

  • Stir in chia seeds until evenly distributed.

Step 3: Chill and thicken

  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, stirring once after 30 minutes to prevent clumping.

Step 4: Serve

  • Stir pudding before serving.
  • Top with whipped cream, yogurt, granola, or pecans.

Flavor Variations

  • Add a tablespoon of almond or peanut butter for richness
  • Stir in mini chocolate chips for dessert vibes
  • Use coconut milk for extra creaminess
  • Layer with Greek yogurt for a parfait-style breakfast

Pro Tips

  • Adjust sweetness after chilling — cold temps can dull sweetness slightly
  • For a smoother texture, blend the pudding before chilling
  • Keeps in the fridge for up to 5 days — great for meal prep
  • Use fresh spices for the most vibrant flavor

Final Thoughts

Pumpkin Chia Pudding is silky, spiced, and nutrient-packed — a cozy fall favorite that’s as easy as mix, chill, and enjoy.
