Method
 

  1. Whisk milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla, key lime juice, and zest until thoroughly combined.
  2. Let the mixture rest for five minutes, then whisk again to eliminate clumps and improve texture.
  3. Divide into jars, cover, and refrigerate overnight until thick, creamy, and fully set.
  4. Stir gently before serving. Add a splash of milk if you prefer a softer consistency.
  5. Top with toasted coconut, crushed graham crackers, and extra lime zest before serving.

Notes

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