    Ingredients for Making Low Carb Pumpkin Chia Pudding

    • Chia seeds - These low-carb seeds are also a great source of fiber, antioxidants, and omega-3 fatty acids.
    • Heavy Cream - If you’re not low carb or keto, you could use half-and-half if you prefer. For vegan, substitute canned coconut milk.
    • Almond Milk - To keep your Pumpkin Chia Seed Pudding keto, make sure you buy the unsweetened kind. 
    • Pumpkin Puree - This should be pure pumpkin, not pie filling.
    • Pumpkin Pie Spice - This premade spice blend includes cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves.
    • Sweetener - I recommend Swerve Confectioners so the sweetener can fully dissolve into the pudding.
    • Salt - You only need a pinch to enhance the flavor of your pudding.

    Tips & Tricks

    • Store each serving in an individual jar or dish so you can grab this chia pudding recipe one at a time when you want a quick meal or snack.
    • If you only have granular low-carb sweetener, throw it in a blender and pulse to turn it into a powder.
    • For a pumpkin pie chia pudding with more texture, skip the blender and simply stir your ingredients together before storing in the fridge. Make sure to shake the jars a few times as the pudding sets.

    Serving Suggestions

    • I always like to add a dollop of homemade Keto Whipped Cream to my Keto Pumpkin Chia Seed Pudding for the full pumpkin pie experience!
    • Top your pudding with Keto Spiced Pecans for some extra crunch and fall flavor.
    • Add a drizzle of Macadamia Nut Butter for a boost of healthy fats to energize your day.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What are the health benefits of chia seeds?


    These little seeds pack quite a punch! Not only are they a good plant-based source of protein, but they’re also packed with fiber, antioxidants, and omega-3 fatty acids. On top of that, all of their carbs come from fiber, which makes them a 0 net-carb ingredient. That’s why they’re so great for keto!

    What can I use in place of the heavy cream? 


    You can substitute canned coconut milk in place of the heavy cream if you prefer a dairy-free or vegan version of this recipe. If you don’t mind dairy and aren’t following a low-carb diet, you can also use half and half for your Sugar-Free Pumpkin Chia Pudding.

    I don’t have almond milk. Can I use all heavy cream?


    This will make a very thick pudding. Instead of replacing the full cup of almond milk with heavy cream, I recommend using ½ a cup of heavy cream and ½ a cup of water to help you achieve the right consistency.

    How do I make chia pudding smooth?


    For the smoothest pudding possible, make sure you give it enough time to process in your blender. You also want to make sure you’re using a high speed blender for the best results.

    Storage

    This Keto Pumpkin Spice Chia Pudding can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For easy grab-and-go meals or snacks, I recommend keeping each serving of keto chia pudding in its own individual container.
