Key Lime Pie

Key Lime Pie

  

Crust: Option, use this crust for gluten free and naturally sweetened

1 1/4 C graham cracker crumbs (about 1 sleeve of graham crackers)
1/4 C butter, melted 

Filling: 

1 C raw cashews, soaked for 4-6 hours or overnight (can skimp if you have a great blender)
3/4 C coconut milk
1/4 C coconut oil
3-4 limes, juiced (1/2 cup)
1 T lime zest
1/3-1/2 C agave or maple syrup
 

Instructions:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F line a pie pan with parchment paper or a regular muffin tin with  paper liners (muffin tin if you want to do smaller, individual pies)
  • In a food processor, grind graham crackers into a fine meal, then add melted butter and pulse to combine.
  • Press evenly into pie pan or muffin cups and bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown. . Remove and let cool.
  • Add all filling ingredients to a blender and process until creamy and smooth. Adjust flavors as needed for more tartness or sweetness. 
  • Pour filling over the crust and tap to eliminate air bubbles. Top with a little more lime zest and cover loosely.
  • Freeze for 2-4 hours or until firm. Before eating, remove from the freezer for about 15 minutes (maybe more if yours was in the freezer longer). Enjoy within 2 weeks, though tastiest when fresh! Keep leftovers in the freezer.
