Yield 2 pies

Number Of Ingredients 10

2.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
2/3 cup butter, melted
1/2 sugar
3 tbsp sugar
2 large egg yolks
4 large eggs
zest of 8 Mexican limes (or 4 regular limes) plus more for garnish
2 14 oz. cans of sweetened condensed milk
1.3 cups of Mexican lime juice (from 2 lbs. of fruit)
1 1/2 Mexican crema (or regular sour cream)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, butter, 1/2 cup of sugar.Press over bottom and sides of two 9" pie pans. Bake until pale golden - 5 mins. If crusts shrink, gently push up with sides of fork. Let cool. 2. Beat yolks, zest, and milk in a bowl with a mixer on high speed until thick, 5 mins. Beat in whole eggs and lime juice just to blend. Divide mixture between crusts. 3. Bake pies until filling no longer jiggles when pies are gently shaken, 20-25 mins. Cool on racks. Cover and chill at least 1.5 hours. 4. Beat crema and remaining 3 tbsp of sugar in a bowl with a mixer on high speed until thick, about 3 minutes. Spread over pies, swirling topping. Scatter more lime zest on top. Make ahead up to 1 day through step 3, covered. Add topping up to 4 hours before serving and chill, uncovered.

This is the best key lime pie I've ever had! The crust is flaky and the filling is perfectly tart and creamy.

This pie is a bit too sweet for me, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be great with a graham cracker crust instead of a regular pie crust.
