Filling
Prepare the Crust
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
Form the Crust
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool.
Make the Filling
In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, egg yolks, and lime zest until smooth.
Combine and Bake
Pour the filling into the cooled crust and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
Cool and Serve
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool at room temperature for about 1 hour. Then refrigerate for at least 3 hours (or overnight) before serving.
