  • KEY! LIME! PIE! A pie with no season, a timeless pie, my personal favorite pie. If pressed to think of a more perfect dessert, I simply could not. While most key lime pies defer to sweetness over tanginess, this one is decidedly “limey”, which is its best asset, IMO (it was once described by one person as “too limey”, but I dismissed this critique and absorbed it as a compliment!). It is also vaguely tropical (thank you, coconut oil in the crust), has a very healthy ratio of crust to filling, and is topped with a tangy (+1 more tanginess) whipped yogurt/cream combo.
    I should also mention that while you could choose to use both a food processor (crust) and a hand/stand mixer (filling/topping) for this pie, I am pleased to report you don’t need either to properly execute this perfect food.

    I made this pie yesterday for the first time. I found juicy limes in the grocery store, used a juicer, and it was a breeze to get 1 cup of lime juice. After it baked, I chilled it overnight. Took it out this morning, made the topping, and it's heaven!! Perfectly tangy, not too sweet. The whole pie came out perfect in my opinion. I love everything about it. Only problem is I made it and had 2 people over for a slice, but they're gone, and now I'm alone with about a half a pie left. So, guess who is going to be going to the fridge every 30 minutes and taking another bite of pie until it's gone?!! Thank you Alison, this is a great recipe.

    Once when I was working as a back bartender a manager accidentally ordered two cases of limes instead of one.

    Thanks for the in-depth explanation about the size of the crumbs for the crust. I made a lemon cheesecake for Easter and I was really bothered by the texture of the crust but couldn’t figure out why. I used the food processor to break up the crackers. The crust had an unpleasantly sandy texture in my mouth. I thought I was crazy but I know know what the problem was. The crumbs were too small.
    I am going to make this pie this week by hand using your suggestions. Dessert shouldn’t be complicated and I really don’t want to drag out the appliances for this one. Thanks!

    Hope stay dry with Storm Henri bringing Caribbean rain. . .beautiful looking ring on crust and whipped cream idea.
    Key limes are more yellow and if can get, those are the best.
    Should try cast iron pie plate for collectible fun, really nice crust too.
