Fresh And Tangy Key Lime Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pulse the almonds in a food processor until finely ground. Combine the almonds with the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and salt. Pour in the melted butter and mix until evenly moistened. Press into a 9-inch pie plate.
• Bake the crust in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 13 minutes.
• While the crust is baking, beat the egg yolks in a bowl with the condensed milk, cream, and lime zest. Whisk in the lime juice a little at a time to thicken the custard. Pour the custard into the pie crust and return to the oven.
• Bake in the oven for 15 minutes to help the custard begin to set. Cool to room temperature on a wire rack before covering loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerating overnight.

• Key Limes are difficult to find outside of Florida. In the US you may be able to find Nellie & Joe's Key West Lime Juice, which is an excellent bottled Key Lime juice. Alternatively you can use the juice of regular (persian/mexican) limes. Preferably freshly squeezed or else a good bottled product. If you squeeze limes, place them in the microwave at full power until very warm (approx 60 to 90 seconds) and let them cool to luke warm. That way the juice will come out very easily.
