Delicious Frozen Key Lime Pie Recipe for Summer Treats

Ingredients

Servings:
8
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut cream
  • 1 cup fresh key lime juice (About 4-6 key limes)
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz can)
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream (For topping)
  • 2 tablespoons lime zest (For garnish)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the crust

    In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until combined. Press into the bottom of a pie dish.

    Use the back of a measuring cup for an even crust.
  2. Mix the filling

    In a large bowl, whisk together coconut cream, key lime juice, and sweetened condensed milk until smooth.

    Ensure that the mixture is well combined for a creamy texture.
  3. Combine and pour

    Pour the filling into the prepared crust and spread evenly.

    Tap the dish gently to remove air bubbles.
  4. Freeze the pie

    Cover the pie with plastic wrap and freeze until solid, about 4 hours or overnight.

    Let the pie sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.
  5. Serve

    Whip heavy cream and spread on top of the pie if desired. Garnish with lime zest before slicing.

    Use a sharp knife for clean slices.
