Ingredients

8 servings

For the crust

1 ½ cups gluten free graham cracker crumbs (from about 10 full crackers)
3 tbsp granulated sugar
6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

For the filling

4 pasteurized egg yolks
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
2 tsp key lime zest (from about 8–10 key limes)
½ cup fresh key lime juice (from about 12–15 key limes)

For the topping

1 cup heavy cream
2 tbsp powdered sugar

For serving

key lime slices, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, stir together the gluten free graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until the crumbs are evenly moistened and hold together when pressed.
2
Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish, using the flat bottom of a measuring cup to compact it. Bake for 8–10 minutes, until the crust is set and lightly golden at the edges. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 10 minutes while you prepare the filling. Leave the oven on.
