In a bowl, whisk together chia seeds, your non-dairy milk, pumpkin purée, pumpkin pie spice, your choice of sweetener, and a pinch of salt.
Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes until it takes on a gel-like consistency, then whisk again to prevent clumping.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency.
Before serving, stir the pudding to evenly distribute the ingredients. If desired, top with chopped nuts or seeds for added texture.
Enjoy your paleo-friendly chia pumpkin pudding as a healthy breakfast or snack!
