Kellys Rich And Creamy Key Lime Pie Recipes

KELLY'S RICH AND CREAMY KEY LIME PIE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 325º. In medium bowl, gently whisk egg yolks. Slowly whisk in sweetened condensed milk. Slowly whisk in key lime juice. *Do not over mix, this will create bubbles. Just whisk and stir gently til all ingredients are mixed together well. Pour into 9" deep dish homemade graham cracker crust. Pop into oven for 40-45 minutes. *My oven takes 44 minutes exactly. The edge of pie will just START to slightly poof up and the edge of pie will also be very SLIGHTLY a pale golden brown. Just very lightly browned. The pie also will no longer jiggle. Let cool. Pie will set up perfectly as it cools. Refrigerate at least 4-6 hours or overnight. Pie gets even better the next day! :)Serve with whipped cream topping. Garnish if desired. VERY rich and creamy! *You can save the egg whites and make a meringue top if preffered. But we like the cool, smooth creaminess of sweetened whipped cream much better than meringue. ;) **If preferred, you can also bake this pie in a 9" deep dish pastry crust. ***If a green color is desired, just add 2 drops green food coloring. I used to do this, but now I just leave it natural colored.
• 2. Tip: I once used fresh key limes and will never do that again. It took forever and you honestly couldn't even tell the difference from the bottled juice.

OUR FAVORITE KEY LIME PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust:
• Place rack in the center of oven and preheat to 350°F.
• Pulse graham crackers, sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a food processor until fine crumbs form. With the motor running, drizzle in melted butter and process until well-combined. Transfer mixture to pie pan and press into bottom and up sides with a flat-bottomed measuring cup.
• Bake crust until golden brown and set, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes.
• Make the filling and bake pie:
• Whisk condensed milk and yolks together in a large bowl. Add key lime and lemon juice and whisk until well-combined (mixture will thicken slightly).
• Pour filling into crust and bake until center is just set, about 15 minutes. Transfer pie to a wire rack and let cool completely (filling will set as it cools), about 1 hour. Transfer to refrigerator and chill until cold, at least 1 hour.
• Make the topping:
• When ready to serve, whip cream with a whisk or electric mixer to very soft peaks. Sprinkle sugar over cream and continue whipping until it holds stiff peaks. Dollop cream in center of pie (leaving at least a 1" border of visible pie filling) and serve.
• Do Ahead
• Pie (without topping) can be made, loosely covered, and chilled for up to 2 days.
