Prep Time 45 minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

CRUST
16 - graham crackers, crushed
3 tablespoon(s) granulated sugar
1/4 pound(s) unsalted butter
PIE FILLING
4 large egg yolks
14 ounce(s) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup(s) fresh key lime juice (approximately 12 key limes)
2 teaspoon(s) lime peel, grated, green portion only
WHIPPING CREAM FOR GARNISH (OPTIONAL)
1/2 cup(s) heavy whipping cream
2 teaspoon(s) granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon(s) Madagascar pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • CRUST: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix the ingredients together and press them into a 9-inch pie plate (glass or pre-formed tin is your option). Bake in oven in middle rack for 10-12 minutes until lightly browned. Remove from oven, and cool on a rack. Note: Do not turn off the oven, as you will be baking the next portion of the pie momentarily.
  • PIE FILLING: In a stand mixer with the whipping attachment, beat the egg yolks on medium speed until they are thick and turn yellow, DO NOT OVERMIX!
  • Turn the mixer off and add the sweetened condensed milk, and turn the mixer speed to low. Drizzle 1/2 of the lime juice. Once the lime juice is incorporated, add the other half of the juice and the zest, continue to mix until melted (just a few seconds).
  • Pour the mixture into the pie shell.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 12 minutes to set the yolks. Remove from oven and cool to room temperature and then refrigerate for approximately 2 hours to set.
  • WHIPPING CREAM: In a stainless steel medium bowl, combine whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla and whisk by hand until creamy peaks form.
  • SERVING: Take the pie out of the refrigerator and slice pie in 8ths. Plate pie and add a dollop of whip cream! Try it also with some toasted coconut too!
