  • Total Time: 8 hours 5 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

Pudding

  • 1/3 cup chia seeds
  • 2 Tablespoons hemp seeds
  • 3/4-1 cup milk (depending on desired thickness)
  • 1/2 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin spice
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 Tablespoons maple syrup

Topping

  • 1 Tablespoon white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup vanilla Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Mix the pudding ingredients: In a large bowl, combine chia seeds, hemp seeds, milk, vanilla Greek yogurt, pumpkin puree, pumpkin spice, vanilla extract, and maple syrup. Stir well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
  2. Divide into jars: Pour the pudding mixture evenly into two jars or bowls prepared for overnight setting.
  3. Melt white chocolate and coconut oil: Place white chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
  4. Incorporate yogurt into topping: Gradually whisk the vanilla Greek yogurt into the melted white chocolate mixture one tablespoon at a time, mixing well until the topping is smooth and uniform.
  5. Assemble topping: Spread the white chocolate and yogurt topping evenly over each pudding jar. Lightly dust with extra pumpkin spice or ground cinnamon for added flavor.
  6. Refrigerate overnight: Seal jars with airtight lids and place them in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours to allow the pudding to set and flavors to meld.
  7. Serve: Enjoy your chilled pumpkin chia seed pudding as a nutritious breakfast or snack the next morning.

Notes

  • Adjust milk quantity to achieve preferred pudding thickness.
  • This recipe is best prepared the night before to allow chia seeds to fully absorb liquid.
  • The white chocolate topping contains dairy; substitute with coconut yogurt and dairy-free chips to make it vegan.
  • Store pudding in airtight containers for up to 4 days in the refrigerator.
  • For added crunch, sprinkle nuts or granola on top before serving.
