This make-ahead overnight Pumpkin Chia Pudding Parfait is creamy, healthy, and delicious! Full of fiber, protein and the flavors of autumn and pumpkin pie. This parfait is gluten free, paleo-friendly and vegan friendly as well.
EASY - This is a ridiculously easy and delicious breakfast! The prep time is less than 30 minutes, and the chia seeds must be kept in the fridge for a minimum of 4 hours (I like to make it the night before).
Please note that there is an overnight inactive chilling time for the chia seeds to hydrate.
