Key Lime Pie
Ingredients
Filling
- 3 large Egg Yolks
- 14 oz Can of Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
- 1/2 cup Key Lime Juice (I use Nellie & Joe's)
- Zest of 1 Lime
Crust
- 1 sleeve Graham Crackers
- 1/2 cup Pecans
- 1/2 cup Sweetened Coconut Flakes
- 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 6 - 8 tbsp Unsalted Butter, melted
Whipped Cream topping
- 2 cups Heavy Cream
- 4 tbsp Confectioner's Sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Into the bowl of a food processor, add graham crackers, sugar, coconut and pecans. Pulse until you get a sandy consistency. Add melted butter and pulse until the mixture is moist and sticks together when you squeeze it between your fingers.
- Add the graham cracker mixture to a 9 inch pie pan and press down firmly to form the crust. Set aside.
- Add all of the filling ingredients to a bowl. Whisk together until fully incorporated.
- Pour the filling into the crust.
- Bake at 350F for 30 mins. Allow to completely cool and place into the fridge overnight.
- To make the whipped cream topping, add heavy cream, sugar and vanilla to bowl and using a stand mixer with the whisk attachment or a hand mixer beat on high until you achieve stiff peaks. Add to a piping bag with a star tip and pipe the cream over the pie. Sprinkle with lime zest.
