So, I’m drinking the pumpkin kool-aid, y’all… I don’t know if my fall spirit is just shining extra bright this year, or if it’s just a by-product of having a food blog, but I definitely want allll the pumpkin flavored things.

Like pumpkin pie. And pumpkin flavored granola. And heck, give me the damn obligatory pumpkin spiced latte…

YOLO. Carpe diem. Go big or go home. Balls to the walls. Pumpkin me up.

This is the stuff autumn dreams are made of. I love the chia pudding texture and I have so many ideas for different variations! So. I hope you guys like pumpkin because…. there may be at least a few more pumpkin recipes coming your way.

This recipe is probably too easy to make, though it does require some forethought for letting the chia pudding sit in the fridge overnight.

How to make vegan pumpkin chia pudding:

First things first. If you want to top it with granola, make your granola like this coconut almond granola or this nutty granola. You can also go with a store-bought brand or top it with some crushed pecans like I did.

The night before you want to eat this Pumpkin Chia Pudding, add all your ingredients to a mason jar. Shake it up and place it in your fridge overnight. This will firm up and be ready and delicious for you in the morning.

When you’re ready to eat it, divide into small dishes and top with coconut cream and crushed pecans.

Layer layer layer! Have fun and make a fancy layered parfait. Layer with chia pudding, coconut cream, granola or nuts, and keep it going!
