Pumpkin Amaretto Chia Seed Pudding
Recipe
I absolutely love chia seed pudding & if you haven’t noticed, I also adore pumpkin. This is loaded with
healthy protein & fats, not to mention the antioxidants & adaptogens, if you choose to add the Maca (it is
ok if you don’t). You can opt for “light” coconut milk but I prefer the full fat content for the added benefits.

Ingredients
2 Cups (1 can) Cha’s Organic Coconut Milk
(If you like it more liquified, feel free to add ½ cup more & assess as you go)
1 Cup Pumpkin Puree. (I like E.D Smithfoods – it is clean)
¾ Cups Chia Seeds (I used Prana)
2 Tbsp Maple Syrup (you can add more, I prefer it less sweet)
1 Tsp salt
1 Tsp Ceylon Cinnamon
1 Tbsp Almond Extract (from Simply Organics)
2 Whole Cloves (Optional – however, it does provide a nice compliment to the almond extract)

**Topping: I like pumpkin seeds, shredded coconut & berries (sky is the limit)
How To
1. In a blender, combine all ingredients, minus the Chia seeds.
2. Add Chia Seeds and blend until well combined. This is where you will notice if you want it more liquid. It will dense up real quick.
3. Scoops in 4 jars and refrigerate overnight. You can add the toppings in the AM if you prefer.
Enjoy!
