Easy Pumpkin Pie Chia Pudding {paleo + vegan}

This easy pumpkin pie chia pudding is paleo, vegan, and keto/low carb friendly! Made with creamy coconut milk, real pumpkin, and just the right amount of pumpkin pie spice for a healthy and easy pumpkin inspired autumn breakfast! 

 
This one’s for all my people out there who are on that pumpkin pie train but also love a super healthy and easy breakfast. Something that fills you up and gives you the energy you need to tackle the first 4 hours of your day, while also being insanely delicious.

The type of breakfast that you go to bed looking forward to 🙌🏼

And all it takes is 15 minutes of prep – 10 of which are completely hands off, so really more like 5. YES YES YES.

It’s oh-so-yummy, perfectly sweet, creamy, indulgent, and completely wholesome all at the same time. Which makes it as acceptable for breakfast as it is for a snack or dessert <– been there and will 100% do it again.

I feel like there’s three categories of people when it comes to the land of pumpkin pie spice.

1. The people who would probably have pumpkin pie spice everything all year round and are the first in line on PSL opening day
2. The people who also love it but are only really in the mood once October hits (100% ME)
3. Those who are just like “nah, I’m good”

I fall decidedly into the 2nd category.

When I first saw the PSL pop up on the starbucks menu (IN AUGUST) I was like NO. Too soon, starbucks, too soon.

But now that October has hit I’ve slowly been adding a dash of pumpkin pie spice to this and that, and I think I can safely say that I’m there, friends. I’ve arrived in the land of pumpkin pie spice and am loving every minute of it.

Thanks in no small part to this easy pumpkin pie chia pudding. Which is definitely my favorite version of anything pumpkin I’ve eaten so far this year.

IT’S INSANELY GOOD YOU GUYS.

 
Like so creamy and tastes pretty much dead on like pumpkin pie (the exact words from my husband and roommates mouth when they ate it for dessert last night) without being too pumpkin-y.

You guys know what I mean? I obviously like pumpkin, but when the actual pumpkin flavor or quantity of pumpkin is too much I’m no longer on board.

This little pudding is perfectly balanced with just the right amount of pumpkin, just the right amount of maple syrup for sweetness (which could be left out to make it keto/low carb friendly!), just the right amount of creamy coconut milk, and just the right amount of pumpkin pie spice.

AKA it’s just the right amount of everything to make it just the right amount of YUMMMM

 
I like to layer it with some yogurt and nuts / grain free granola for some added texture and crunch, but you could also eat it on it’s own OR if you’re feeling a little extra some whipped cream and candied pecans would be to die for 😍

Any way you serve it, this easy little pumpkin pie chia pudding will pull you out of your breakfast rut and straight into the category of pumpkin pie spice enthusiast with style and grace 💯
