Equipment
- 9-inch pie dish
- Oven
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 Cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/3 Cup Granulated sugar
- 6 Tbsps Unsalted butter
- 3 Large Egg yolks
- 1 Can 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 Cup Freshly squeezed key lime juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until well mixed.
- Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish.
- Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- In another bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and condensed milk until smooth.
- Gradually add the key lime juice, whisking until well combined.
- Pour the filling into the cooled crust.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
- Let the pie cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
- For the best flavor, use freshly squeezed key lime juice instead of bottled juice.
- Be careful not to overbake the pie; it should still have a slight jiggle in the center when you remove it from the oven.
