Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly coat a 9-inch ceramic pie plate with oil or butter.
Graham Cracker Crust
- In a medium bowl, whisk together graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and salt. Stir in melted butter until well combined. (Crust should hold together when pressed). Using the bottom of a measuring cup, press mixture into bottom and up sides of prepared pan.
- Bake until crust is fragrant and set, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Leave oven on.
Key Lime Pie Filling
- In a large bowl, whisk together condensed milk, lime zest and juice, egg yolks, vanilla, and salt until well combined. Spread into prepared crust.
- Bake until crust is golden brown, edges are set, and center jiggles slightly when plate is gently shaken, about 30 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Refrigerate until cold and set, at least 4 hours, or overnight. (Loosely cover pie once cold if refrigerating overnight.)
- Top with a swiss meringue and serve!
