It’s not quite fully pie season yet, but it is definitely apple season. I created this Apple Pie Chia Pudding to mesh the two worlds together.

First, making this Apple Pie Chia Pudding starts with understanding how to make a basic chia pudding.

 

After You have your basic chia pudding, all you do is add a few apple pie-ish ingredients, toss it together with crushed Graham crackers, and add a heaping amount of Cinnamon Vanilla Whipped Cream (Vegan). 

 

 

Just like that, you can dig into the best Apple Pie Chia Pudding you’ve ever had.
