- 1 cup fresh cranberries
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp orange zest
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1.5 tsp chai spice blend
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- pinch salt
- 1 cup granola
- 1/4 cup toasted pecans (optional)
How to make Pumpkin Chai Chia Pudding Parfait with Granola and Cranberry Compote
- Prepare the Cranberry Compote: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup fresh cranberries, 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, and 1/2 teaspoon orange zest. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Cook for 7-10 minutes, or until the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened slightly. Remove from heat and let cool completely. The compote will thicken further as it cools.
- Prepare the Chia Pudding: In a large bowl or a sealable container, whisk together 1/2 cup chia seeds, 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice), 1/2 cup pumpkin puree, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 1 1/2 teaspoons chai spice blend, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well combined and there are no clumps.
- Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, allowing the chia seeds to swell and the pudding to thicken to a creamy consistency. Stir occasionally during the first hour if possible to prevent clumping.
- Assemble the Parfaits: Once both the chia pudding and cranberry compote are chilled, gather 4 serving glasses or jars.
- Spoon about 1/4 cup of the pumpkin chai chia pudding into the bottom of each glass.
- Follow with a layer of about 2 tablespoons of the cooled cranberry compote.
- Sprinkle a layer of 1/4 cup granola over the compote.
- Repeat the layers: add another 1/4 cup of chia pudding, followed by another layer of compote and granola.
- Garnish the top with additional granola and a few toasted pecans, if desired. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
