Classic Key Lime Pie

• Digestive biscuits14 pieces
• Butter135 g
• Sugar1 msk
• Sweetened condensed milk1 can
• Egg yolks4 pieces
• Limes4 pieces

METHOD

1. 01Preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius (390°F). Prepare a pie pan, preferably one with a removable bottom for easy serving.
2. 02Melt the butter in a saucepan. Crush the digestive biscuits finely into a bowl. Add the sugar and the melted butter to the crushed biscuits, mixing until well combined.
3. 03Press the biscuit mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pie pan. Bake for 8 minutes in the middle of the preheated oven.
4. 04While the crust bakes, zest three of the limes and set aside. Squeeze the juice from all four limes.
5. 05In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sweetened condensed milk, lime zest, and lime juice until smooth. Pour this vibrant filling over the pre-baked biscuit crust.
6. 06Return the pie to the oven and bake for approximately 15 more minutes at the same temperature, or until the filling is set but still slightly wobbly in the center.
7. 07Allow the pie to cool completely at room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours (or preferably overnight) before slicing and serving.
