There are about as many recipes for Key Lime Pie as there are chefs who prepare it, and of course each one proudly proclaims his or her recipe as the best. This one is among my favorites which we enjoyed at our clambake. It’s about as easy as they come, and there’s no question as to its authenticity since it comes from the producers of Nellie & Joe’s Famous Lime Juice in Key West, Florida. Since there are a lot of other details to be attended to with the clambake, I suggest you buy the pie crust; however, you can also make one, and I provide the recipe below. At the clambake, we served each slice of pie with a refreshing treat: a generous wedge of seedless watermelon. The folks at Nellie & Joe’s recommend serving fresh whipped cream and slices of lime as a garnish—and I agree wholeheartedly.
Ingredients- 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1/2 cup Nellie & Joe’s Famous Lime Juice
- 1 9-inch Pie Crust
Instructions1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
2. Combine the condensed milk, egg yolks, and lime juice in a large bowl (see Note) and stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth.
3. Pour the filling into the pie crust and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before refrigerating a minimum of 1 hour.
Note: You can combine the milk, egg yolks, and lime juice in a food processor, instead of a large bowl, if you prefer.
