Atlantic Beach Pie Bars
Report
Atlantic beach pie bars are the perfect summer treat! A salty cracker crust is topped with fresh citrus curd, fresh whipped cream and a sprinkle of sea salt. Tangy, light, refreshing and delicious.

Ingredients
- 2 sleeves saltine crackers
- 12 tablespoons salted butter
- ⅓ cup sugar
- 8 egg yolks
- 2 14 ounce cans sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon and lime juice, a mix of it
- fresh whipped cream, for topping
- Lime zest, for topping
- Flaked sea salt, for topping
Instructions
- Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Crush the saltines until crumbs remain. In a large bowl, combine the crushed saltines with the softened butter and sugar. Mix until combined - almost until a dough forms. You can use your hands to bring it together.
- Press the mixture into the baking dish. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- After chilling, bake the crust for 18 to 20 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and egg yolks. Make sure they are fully combined. Slowly whisk in the citrus juice, stirring the entire time.
- Pour the mixture over the crust. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until it’s completely set.
- Let the bars cool completely, then chill in the fridge for 2 hours or even overnight. They have to be cold to be sliced!
- Slice the bars into squares. Top each with fresh whipped cream (I prefer unsweetened), a sprinkle of flakey salt and fresh lime zest.
