Description

Cozy, creamy, and nourishing, this Pumpkin Spice Basil Seed Pudding is the perfect fall-inspired healthy treat. Blended with real pumpkin, warm spices, and a hint of cacao, it delivers all the flavors of autumn in a light yet satisfying pudding. Basil seeds give it the familiar chia pudding texture — but with even more fiber and nutrients — making it a wholesome choice for breakfast, snack, or even dessert. Naturally dairy-free and easily customizable, it’s a recipe you can prep ahead for a quick, nourishing bite any time of day.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsweetened macadamia milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1 cup pumpkin purée (or sweet potato)
  • 1 tablespoon hazelnut butter (or your favorite nut butter)
  • 1 tablespoon cacao powder
  • 1 tablespoon allulose (or preferred sweetener)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • Pinch of vanilla
  • Pinch of salt
  • 4 tablespoons basil seeds
  • Optional: 1 scoop protein powder for an extra boost


Instructions

  1. In a blender, combine everything except the basil seeds. For an extra boost of protein, add a scoop of your favorite protein powder. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. Transfer the mixture to a bowl or jar, stir in the basil seeds, and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 30–60 minutes, until thickened.
  3. Once set, divide into 2 serving jars or bowls. Top with grated dark chocolate and enjoy immediately, or refrigerate longer for a colder, firmer pudding.

Notes

These puddings can be prepared the night before for a nourishing grab-and-go breakfast, snack, or light lunch the next day.
