Back again with more pumpkin peanut butter flavor - this time with a quick overnight recipe! Chia pudding is so great for a snack or part of any meal - such as on toast like I did here, and just takes a few minutes to throw together. You can adapt the strength of the peanut butter flavor to your liking by taste-testing once the pudding is ready in the morning and adding more peanut butter powder if you wish! I used Crazy Richard’s powdered peanut butter, made with just peanuts, for this recipe.
I put this chia pudding on toast with banana and an extra sprinkle of pumpkin spice for a delicious breakfast toast! This new fun toast-themed plate was a surprise gift from my mom, and so of course I had to use it for toasts! I always love pairing one sweet and one savory toast flavor for breakfast for the best of both worlds. I did one piece of avocado toast with radish, tempeh, a mix of chopped veggies from Trader Joe’s (called the “Holiday Vegetable Hash”) for the savory toast.
If you don't have pumpkin spice, you can easily substitute with a good shake of cinnamon, and a dash of, nutmeg, allspice, ginger, nutmeg, and/or clove - depending on which of these spices you have on hand. If you want the pudding thicker, add more peanut powder in the morning; if you want it thinner, add more milk. You can also add a few tbsp of honey or maple syrup if you want to sweeten it more.
