Key lime pie is a dessert classic that combines the tangy flavors of key limes with creamy filling and a flaky graham cracker crust. The combination of sweet and sour creates an irresistible flavor profile that is sure to satisfy any sweet tooth.
Here’s a simple recipe to create your own key lime pie:
Ingredients:
– 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
– 1/3 cup melted butter
– 4 egg yolks
– 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
– 1/2 cup key lime juice (about 5 key limes)
– 1 tbsp lime zest
– Whipped cream and lime wedges, for garnish
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
2. In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from the oven and let cool.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, and lime zest until well combined. Pour the mixture over the graham cracker crust.
4. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
5. Before serving, garnish with whipped cream and lime wedges. Enjoy your homemade key lime pie!
