Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Graham Cracker Crust

  1. In a medium bowl, stir graham crumbs, sugar, and melted butter.
  2. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of an 8 or 9-inch pie pan.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes. Leave the oven turned on, and let the crust cool as you make the filling.

Pie Filling

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, and egg yolks until smooth.
  2. Pour the batter over the crust.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes. It should look somewhat set but still have a wobble to it.
  4. Remove from the oven and cool fully. Then cover the top and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.
  5. Top with whipped cream, lime zest, and lime wedges.

Notes

  • STORE. Keep your key lime pie covered with plastic wrap or foil in the fridge for 3-4 days.
  • FREEZE homemade key lime pie without whipped cream or lime slices. Wrap in plastic wrap and tinfoil or a freezer storage bag for a few months. To thaw, place in the fridge for 3-4 hours.
