This smooth and creamy Pumpkin Chia Pudding is not only easy to make, but is healthy enough to be eaten for breakfast.
Since this is the season for pumpkin recipes, I decided to make a Pumpkin Chia Pudding. Using chia seeds to make pudding is a great choice because chia seeds get gelatinous when you add liquid.
I wanted to post a Halloween recipe today, but it didn't work out the way I envisioned. Also, I didn't plan on posting two chia puddings in a row, but I figured since Halloween is on Monday, this would be a good time. I have included this in my dessert section, but since it is so healthy, it could also be eaten for breakfast.
Actually, I was hoping to have a Halloween recipe ready to post last Saturday, but you may have noticed that I have been having problems with my site. It has been down on and off since last Friday night. I tried to switch themes and it messed up my site. Hopefully it can be worked out because I really like the theme I picked out.
It has been a nightmare to say the least. I have been on the phone with techs for hours at a time, of course each one saying different things. The one great thing that I learned and have fixed is all my photos are now optimized as well as a few other things that were taking up way too much space.
For this recipe, I decided to mix all the ingredients in a high speed blender. It makes a smooth and creamy pudding.

This looks so delicious 🙂 We only recently really started to get into the chia seeds. The kids will eat them in some things and not everything, but I bet they will like this! I like how you added dates as an alternative for sweeteners, we don't use any of the sweeteners.
Willow Moon says
My husband is the same way! He'll eat chia seeds in some things, but not others. It's a textural thing. I hope they like it!
