Method

Filling

1

Prepare the crust

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden and set. Remove from oven and let cool.

2

Make the filling

In another mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, and egg yolks until well combined. Pour the filling into the cooled crust.

3

Bake the pie

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.

4

Serve

Once chilled, slice the pie into wedges. Serve with whipped cream on top if desired.
