Pumpkin Pie season is in full swing, and I am holding onto the few remaining weeks that I can go gaga over all things pumpkin spice without receiving excessive eye rolls. This chia seed pudding with gluten-free rolled oats is no exception! Itās super quick recipe that you can adapt to your dietary needs, and can be enjoyed as a breakfast on-the-go, post-workout meal or a healthy dessert. Itās ready in 5 minutes to throw in the fridge to sit for a few hours or overnight to enjoy at a momentās notice.

This pudding is a delicious balance of high-fiber from the chia seeds, oats and pumpkin puree and is loaded with over 22 grams of protein (if you choose to add a scoop of powdered collagen or 1/2 scoop of your favorite protein powder, without that addition you still get a whopping 12 grams).
Itās thick and pudding-like, but thatās adaptable too if you prefer a more runny version. If you are grain-free, keto or paleo, eliminate the oats and add shredded coconut to keep you on track. The addition of ground cinnamon, a dash of nutmeg and ground ginger adds sweetness and helps balance out your blood sugar too.

This recipe is for one serving, but can easily be doubled or quadrupled if desired for easy meal prep. It will last in the fridge for several days after you make it too, so go ahead and prep a few ahead of time.

Note
If you prefer a more runny pudding (I like mine really thick), add an additional 1/4 -1/2 cup non-dairy milk
**For Keto/Paleo and/or grain-free, eliminate the oats and add 1 additional tablespoon of chia seeds and 2 Tbsp shredded coconut
***If you use a sweetened protein powder, you may not need to add sweetener or atleast use a lot less. Taste the mix and adjust to taste. If you follow a low carb, no sugar or keto diet, use stevia, monk fruit or erythritol
