Key Lime Pie Recipe





15 graham crackers, crushed


2 tablespoons sugar


¼ pound butter


4 large eggs, yolks only (see the variation below and use the whites too)


14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk


12 key limes, juiced


2 teaspoons lime zest


1 cup whipping cream





Preheat oven to 350°.





Mix the crackers, butter and sugar together. Press into a 9” pie dish. Bake for 12 minutes until the pie shell is golden.





Meanwhile beat the egg yolks with an electric mixer until they lighten in color and thicken. Add the condensed milk and ½ of the lime juice, and whisk until combined. Add the remaining lime juice and the lime zest. Mix to combine thoroughly.





Pour the lime mixture into the pie shell, and bake for 12 minutes.





Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Whisk the whipping cream until it forms soft peaks. Cover the lime pie with the cream and serve.





Variation:


* This recipe calls for a whipped cream topping on the pie, but like lemon pie, key lime pie is also wonderful with meringue. Leave the oven on after the pie is baked. Use the egg whites left over from the recipe, whip them until they form firm peaks (adding a few tablespoons of sugar near the end of the whipping), spread the meringue over the pie and bake for 5 minutes until it begins to look golden brown. Perfect meringue topped key lime pie.
Here's the one I use.





Key Lime Pie Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse








1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs


1/2 cup granulated sugar


4 tablespoons (1/2 stick butter) melted


2 (14-ounce) cans condensed milk


1 cup key lime or regular lime juice


2 whole eggs


1 cup sour cream


2 tablespoons powdered sugar


1 tablespoon lime zest





Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.


In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter with your hands. Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie pan, and bake until brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature before filling.





Lower the oven temperature to 325 degrees F.





In a separate bowl, combine the condensed milk, lime juice, and eggs. Whisk until well blended and place the filling in the cooled pie shell. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes and allow to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.





Once chilled, combine the sour cream and powdered sugar and spread over the top of the pie using a spatula. Sprinkle the lime zest as a garnish on top of the sour cream and serve chilled.

Key Lime pie





INGREDIENTS


key limes





* 1/2 cup fresh lime juice (3 to 4 limes)


* 4 teaspoons grated lime zest


* 4 egg yolks


* 1 - 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk


* 11 graham crackers


* 3 tablespoons granulated sugar


* 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted





PREP WORK





It's easier to remove the lime zest from whole limes so I would start with that. Then I would cut the limes in half and squeeze out the juice being careful not to include any pits.





Process the graham crackers in a food processor or blender and then melt the butter and have it at the ready.





HOW TO MAKE AT HOME





1. Whisk the egg yolks and lime zest together in a bowl until tinted light green. This takes about 2 minutes





2. Beat in milk, then juice and set aside at room temperature till it thickens.





3. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.





4. Mix graham cracker crumbs and sugar in another bowl.





5. Add butter and stir with a fork until well blended.





6. Pour this mixture into a 9-inch pie pan and press over the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Try using the bottom of a measuring cup to make sure the graham cracker mixture forms a firm crust on the bottom of the pie pan.





7. Bake on the center rack for about 15 minutes until the crust is lightly brown, remove and let cool to room temperature.





8. Pour the lime filling into crust, spread evenly, and then bake for 15 minutes until the center sets, but still wiggles when shaken.





9. Remove from oven and cool to room temperature.





10. Refrigerate for at least three hours until well chilled.





Some of you might like to serve it with a whipped cream topping or a meringue topping, but I prefer keeping it simple. If the pie seems to be sticking to the pan when serving, try dipping the pan into a bowl of warm water to loosen it.





GOOD APPETITE!!!!
