Divine Key Lime Pie 💚

I made this recipe with two coworkers who have never baked before. About the word 'Key' in the name, it comes from the Florida Keys where it's common to find small delicious juicy 'Key' limes.

Ingredient

1/2 teaspoon

Sweetened condensed milk (1 can)

Lime zest (from grating the limes we just juiced)

170 g

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Start here if you're making the crust yourself. For a store-bought crust, skip to step 9

* Step 2

Melt the butter and allow to cool.

* Step 3

In a large food processor or blender, combine the graham crackers, sea salt, and sugar.

* Step 4

Mix them up for around 30 seconds.

* Step 5

Add the butter and continue mixing it until it's uniform. If it looks really watery add another graham cracker or two.

* Step 6

For the pie, your pan should be ~20cm. If you have a pie pan or springform pan, then skip this step. Otherwise if you're using a cake pan, press aluminium foil inside to the edges. This will allow us to lift the pie out easier later.

* Step 7

Push your graham cracker mixture into the bottom and edge of the pan, and don't worry about getting your hands dirty :) Then put the crust in the fridge for 10 minutes. (Don't use cling-film on the top, or it will steam)

* Step 8

Take out of the fridge, and bake at 190C (~320F) for 15 minutes ^3^

* Step 9

Separate the eggs, and save the yolks. You can use the whites for something else later.

* Step 10

In your food processor/ blender blend the filling ingredients (condensed milk, egg yolks, lime juice, lime zest), scraping the sides every 5 seconds or so. (Until it's smooth)
