  • 1 cup almond milk or your favorite plant-based milk

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium-sized bowl or jar, mix together pumpkin puree, almond milk, and maple syrup until smooth.
  2. Add pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon to the mix, stirring gently to combine them.
  3. Gradually sprinkle in chia seeds, stirring continuously to ensure even distribution and avoid clumping.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb liquid.
  5. After chilling, stir the pudding to check consistency, adding a splash of almond milk if too thick.
  6. Scoop into bowls or jars and top with fruits, nuts, or granola before serving.
