  • ½ cup key lime juice
  • 3 large egg yolks

Graham Cracker Crust

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the graham crumbs, sugar and melted butter.
  • Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of an 8 or 9-inch pie plate.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes. Leave the oven turned on, and let the crust cool as you make the filling.

Pie Filling

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, and egg yolks until smooth.
  • Pour the batter over the crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes. It should look somewhat set, but still have a wobble to it.
  • Remove from the oven and cool fully. Then cover the top and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.
  • Top with whipped cream, lime zest and lime wedges.

Notes

Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
