KEY LIME PIE PUDDING
/Key Lime Pie Pudding topped with strawberries, keto grain-free granola, mini keto snickerdoodle cookies, and lime zest.
This easy make-ahead chia pudding has been a huge hit with my taste and recipe testers. It’s creamy and refreshing and super satisfying, with a vibrant burst of lime.
I love it for breakfast but it also makes a great nutritious-and-delicious snack or dessert.
Bonus is, it comes together in just a couple of minutes and is packed with probiotics, fibre, healthy fats, and protein, too!
Key Lime Pie Pudding made with lime yogurt and topped with berries, lime slices, grain-free granola, unsweetened shredded coconut, coconut wafers, and lime zest.
Ingredients for 4 servings:
canned coconut milk (light here, or full-fat), 1/2 cup to full can, adjusted to desired consistency (see note below*)
1 1/2 cups plain (or lime) probiotic Greek or non-dairy yogurt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
juice from 2 regular limes or 4 key limes, adjusted to taste (note: zest before juicing)
handful of baby spinach (optional, for colour)
1/4 cup sugar-free maple or pure maple syrup, adjusted to taste
pinch sea salt
1/2 cup chia seeds
zest from 2 limes or 2 key limes, adjusted to taste
optional toppings: berries, lime slices and/or zest, granola, or toppings of choice
Note: If the yogurt is thin, only 1/2 to 1 cup of coconut milk will be needed. For extra-thick yogurt, add the full can. After a few hours, you can adjust the consistency if needed by adding some additional milk or chia seeds.
Directions:
Put coconut milk, yogurt, vanilla, lime juice, baby spinach (if using), sweetener, and salt into a blender container and blend well.
Add the chia seeds and pulse-blend just to combine. Whisk in lime zest.
Pour into a bowl or single serving mason jars and whisk or cover and shake. Allow to sit for 10 minutes, then whisk or cover and shake again. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
In the morning, stir and add additional sweetener, zest, and/or milk as needed for desired taste and consistency. Serve cold with your choice of toppings.
