Method
 

  1. Whisk milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla, key lime juice, and zest until smooth.
  2. Rest the mixture for five minutes, then whisk again for an even, creamy texture.
  3. Divide into jars, cover, and refrigerate overnight until thick and fully set.
  4. Stir before serving. Add a splash of milk if you prefer a softer consistency.
  5. Finish with toasted coconut, crushed graham crackers, and extra lime zest before serving.

Notes

For a softer texture, add more milk. For a thicker pudding, increase chia seeds slightly. Freeze plain jars for future meals and thaw overnight before enjoying. Add crunchy toppings just before serving for the best assembly. Customize with berries, mango, or vanilla yogurt. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to four days.
