Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, heavy cream, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Add the canned pumpkin puree to the mixture and whisk until smooth and fully incorporated.
Gently stir in the chia seeds, making sure they're evenly dispersed throughout the mixture.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the pudding.
After chilling, give the pudding a good stir to break up any clumps. If the pudding is too thick, you can add a bit more almond milk to reach the desired consistency.
Serve in individual cups or bowls, topped with optional whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or pumpkin seeds for added texture and flavor.
Notes
For a vegan version, replace the heavy cream with coconut cream and ensure the toppings are dairy-free.The pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, making it perfect for meal prep.Adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding more or less erythritol.
