Step-by-Step Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes, or until it is lightly browned. Let it cool completely.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the key lime juice and condensed milk until well combined. Beat in the egg yolks until smooth. Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust and smooth the top. Bake the pie for 15-18 minutes, or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly browned. Let it cool to room temperature.
3
Once the pie has cooled, refrigerate it for at least 2 hours or overnight. Just before serving, top the pie with whipped cream and garnish with fresh lime zest.
