INGREDIENTS

  • Crust

    • ⅔ cup toasted slivered almonds
    • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
    • ¼ cup white sugar
    • 🧂 1 pinch salt
    • 🧈 ¼ cup butter, melted

  • Filling

    • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
    • ¾ cup cold heavy cream
    • 🥚 4 large egg yolks
    • ½ teaspoon grated lime zest
    • ½ cup Key lime juice

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

2

Pulse almonds in a food processor until finely ground, then pour into a medium bowl. Add graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and salt. Pour in melted butter and mix until evenly moistened. Press into a 9-inch pie plate.

3

Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown, 10 to 13 minutes.

4

While crust is baking, make the filling: Beat condensed milk, cream, egg yolks, and lime zest in a large bowl until well combined. Whisk in lime juice, a little at a time, to thicken custard. Pour custard into pie crust.

5

Bake until custard is set, about 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature on a wire rack, then cover loosely with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 8 hours to overnight.
