I never really loved Yogurt as a kid, but this mixture is something I have several times a week and now that it’s fall I had to make a Pumpkin Version! So I’m going to show you how I make my Pumpkin Pie Faux-Gurt. It’s fast to make, creamy and delicious and it goes perfectly with my Oil-Free Granola. Or you can mix it with fruit – I do both!

Another way that you can think of this is as a chia pudding that is crazy healthy for you. It’s packed with protein and fibre and is incredibly rich in both iron and calcium. If you’re looking for a perfect post-workout breakfast you’re going to want to include this as part of it. You can always omit the protein powder if you want and it will reduce the calories, but it will also reduce the protein. Feel free to use whatever brand you like. I’m a big fan of LeanFit’s Plant-Based Protein.

I always make this as a single serving so it’s fresh, but there’s no reason that you couldn’t make a huge batch of this in a blender and then keep it in the fridge for the rest of the week. It’ll easily keep for a few days. I like to use a magic bullet, but you can make this in any high-speed blender like a Vita-Mix.

While this is the standard base I use, I’ve been known to jazz it up with some cinnamon powder or cocoa powder from time to time. I’ve also used other fruits as the base like this Banana Faux-Gurt, and I’ve also got a Peach, Mango, and Mixed Berry versions here. And if you’re put for more Pumpkin recipes try my Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal or Pumpkin Bread!

This might be the thing I make the most in my kitchen. But now that you know how to make Pumpkin Pie Faux-Gurt you’ll always have a healthy and nutrient filled way to start the day. Smash it into your face today!

  1. Put all the ingredients into a small blender, a magic bullet is ideal for a single serving. Let it blend until it’s nicely mixed together and creamy. 

  2. Let it sit for a few minutes so the chia can thicken up a little bit. Then blend again.

    Eat it on it’s own or pour it over fruit, mix, and top with granola! However you eat it, smash it into your face!

    Hi there! This looks really good but I prefer not to use protein powder – is there something I can use to replace it in your fauxgurt recipes?
    Thanks!
