Instructions
- Prepare your pie crust of choice and blind bake according to its directions. If you're using my oil-free pie crust, bake for 15-20 minutes, until the edges are golden. Set aside to let cool before filling.
- Add all the filling ingredients to your blender and process until smooth. Then pour the mixture into your crust and spread as evenly as possible.
- Freeze overnight, or for a minimum of 4-6 hours. Once frozen, rest at room temperature for 5-10 minutes, to make it easier to slice, then garnish and serve.

Notes
- If you don't have a high-speed blender, soak your cashews in hot water for 30 minutes and then drain, before blending with the remaining ingredients. This will help them soften, making them easier to blend.
- Make sure to plan ahead, as this pie tastes best when frozen for at least 4-6 hours.
- This pie is more tart than sweet. If you prefer a sweeter pie, increase the sugar to half a cup, noting that this will increase the calorie content, too.
- If you prefer extra tart, use up to ¾ cup of fresh lime juice. You may also add 1-2 teaspoons of lime zest for extra zing.
- Nutritional information is for one slice (or ⅛th) of the lime pie, including my oil free pie crust. If you're using another crust, nutritional info will vary.
