Method
Key Lime Pie Directions

Prepare the crust
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool.

Bake the pie
Pour the filling into the prepared crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.
