Ingredients
- 1 can (15 oz) of pure pumpkin puree

Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the pumpkin puree, coconut milk, maple syrup, cornstarch, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and sea salt. Whisk together until smooth.

- Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and allow it to cool slightly.
- Pour the pudding into individual serving bowls or cups and cover each with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming on top.
