I made this often with fresh key limes when we lived in California, where we had a tree full of them. Now they are hard to get so I use regular limes fresh juice is really the best flavor with either lime! It can be made in the traditional 10 inch pie pan or in 4 -3 inch tart pans as I made in the photo for 4 individual pies

Use only Key Lime juice. It just doesn't taste right with regular Lime Juice.

Nothing says summer like the light citrus flavor of key lime pie! As we are quickly blowing through the summer season it occurred to me, I had not made a key lime pie all season. With thirty minutes to spare and not a single key lime in the house... I pulled together this delicious, gorgeous pie. The meringue is optional but gives such an improvement to the look of an otherwise lifeless looking pie. Also, I do not use food coloring (what's in that stuff anyway) but if synthetic and complicated chemical names are your thing you can green your pie up as you see fit. Regardless of pie color and meringue, this pie is a silky citrus filled treat for any occasion. I hope you enjoy.

Honestly this is the best recipe for key lime pie, it's not too sweet and not too sour. It's simple to make and extremely addicting! 😊

This is pretty requested in our household. If you don't have fresh key limes available to you and can't find the bottled key lime juice, you can use regular limes in a pinch. Just keep in mind that they're a little more tart. Recipe Source : Sallys Baking Addiction Cookbook
