Lime Pie

LIME PIE

Is time for something sweet, so I decided to finally share my lime pie recipe! It is extremely easy to make and tastes gorgeous.

Ingredients

1 packet of rich tea biscuits 

1 can of condensed milk

2  egg yolk

2 limes

200 gs of salted butter (melted)

BASE PREPARATION

Pre-heat the oven to 180 C

Whiz the biscuits in a blender until they are powdered, and pass it to a bowl. Add the melted butter and with a fork, mix together and place it into a pie base plate or any other base you have already buttered. Press it down firmly, the place it in the oven for 15-20 min

LIME CREAM PREPARATION

In the same blender (cleaned) place the condensed milk, yokes and lime and mix together. Let it rest until the base is done. 

When the base is done, add the cream that you made before. Let it rest until it is cool.

Put it in the fridge for an hour. Once the cream has set, it is ready to serve.

TIPS

While the base is in the oven, check the color. It should a pale brown.

If you want to add more lime to make it more sour go for it, the lime doesn't affect the consistency of the cream, it actually makes it thicker.

I never add decoration, just a little bit of lime zest and that's it. It is perfect by itself.
