Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly coat a 9-inch ceramic pie plate with oil or butter.
Graham Cracker Crust
  1. 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.
  2. Bake until crust is fragrant and set, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Leave oven on.
Key Lime Pie Filling
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together condensed milk, lime zest and juice, egg yolks, vanilla, and salt until well combined. Spread into prepared crust.
  2. 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.)
  3. Top with a swiss meringue and serve!
