EASY KEY LIME PIE II



Easy Key Lime Pie II image

A very refreshing, easy Florida specialty pie!

Provided by Carolyn

Categories     Desserts     Pies     Custard and Cream Pie Recipes     Key Lime Pie Recipes

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust
3 eggs, separated
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon grated lime zest
⅓ cup fresh lime juice
1 cup frozen whipped topping, thawed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (125 degrees C).
  • In a large glass or metal bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, beat egg yolks, then stir in condensed milk, lime rind, and lime juice. Mix well, then fold mixture into beaten egg whites. Pour mixture into graham cracker crust.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Chill before serving. Garnish with whipped topping if desired.

Nutrition Facts : Calories 364.2 calories, Carbohydrate 49.3 g, Cholesterol 86.4 mg, Fat 15.9 g, Fiber 0.5 g, Protein 7.7 g, SaturatedFat 6.9 g, Sodium 261.6 mg, Sugar 40.6 g

Tips:

  • Use fresh key limes. Fresh key limes have a more intense flavor than bottled or frozen lime juice. If you can't find key limes, you can substitute regular limes, but you may need to add more lime zest to achieve the same flavor.
  • Don't overbeat the egg yolks. Overbeating the egg yolks will make the pie filling too thick and custard-like. Beat the egg yolks just until they are light and fluffy.
  • Bake the pie in a water bath. Baking the pie in a water bath helps to prevent the filling from curdling and also helps to create a more evenly baked pie.
  • Chill the pie before serving. The pie needs to chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving. This allows the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
  • Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream. Whipped cream or ice cream is the perfect complement to the tart and tangy key lime pie.

Conclusion:

Key lime pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and always a hit with guests. With its creamy filling and tangy lime flavor, key lime pie is a delicious and refreshing treat that is sure to please everyone.
