Creamy Baked Key Lime Pie Recipe: A Summer Dessert Recipe Worth Sharing Pies Desserts

Close your eyes and take a bite of key lime pie, and you'll be magically transported to a tropical location in your mind. There's nothing like eating a piece of creamy key lime pie during the summer months. A member of our Facebook community commented on Donna John's popular four-ingredient key lime pie recipe. The reader shared her recipe for key lime pie, and we had to give it a try. 

While the key lime filling Donna makes has cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk and key lime juice, the community member's three-ingredient filling is made with sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice and egg yolks. The pie is rich and delicious! She also uses a graham cracker crust, which you can buy premade at the grocery store or make a homemade graham cracker crust (it's so easy!). This key lime pie recipe is baked, too, because of the raw eggs.

Serve this creamy baked key lime pie for dessert with whipped cream and fresh lime slices on top. How do you make key lime pie? Share your recipe in the comments section below!
