  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds optional

Method
 

  1. Whisk milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until smooth.
  2. Stir in chia seeds thoroughly. Rest for 5 minutes, then stir again for an even, creamy texture.
  3. Spoon the mixture into jars, cover, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours until thickened.
  4. Stir before serving. Add extra milk for a softer consistency, then finish with your favorite toppings.

Notes

For a softer pudding, stir in additional milk before serving. For a thicker texture, increase chia seeds slightly. Freeze individual portions for up to one month and thaw overnight before eating. Stir gently after chilling for the best assembly. Customize flavors with cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cocoa, or toasted coconut. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to five days.
