Default Holiday Key Lime Pie

Key Lime Pie is a delicious dessert to make for the holidays! Here is a yummy recipe:

Ingredients:

¼ cup Flaxseed Meal
1 ½ cups Graham cracker crumbs
3 tablespoons Butter, melted
2 tablespoons Brown sugar, packed
6 ounces Plain Nonfat Yogurt
14 ounces Sweetened Condensed Milk, 1 can
2 Large Eggs
1 cup Fresh lime juice
½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
3 tablespoons Powdered Sugar
1 tablespoon Lime zest
8 ounces Heavy whipping cream
6 ounces Vanilla lowfat yogurt

Directions:

1. Make crust.
Preheat oven to 350. Combine graham cracker crumbs, butter, sugar, and ground flaxseed (you can skip the flax if you want, and just use an extra 1/4 cup graham crumbs) in a medium bowl until well incorporated. Pour into a glass pie dish and press down with your fingers so that crumb mixture becomes a crust. Bake for 8-10 minutes then let cool completely.

2. Make lime pie filling.
Reduce oven temperature to 325. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sweetened condensed milk, plain yogurt (not the vanilla), and lime juice. Pour into the graham cracker crust and bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool at room temperature for 1 hour, then in the fridge for at least 2 hours.

3. Make whipped cream topping.
Using a stand mixer or electric hand mixer, whip cream until soft peaks form. Sprinkle in powdered sugar, drizzle in vanilla extract, then continue whipping until stiff peaks form. With a spatula, fold vanilla yogurt into the whipped cream until mixture is smooth (folding means gently combining so as not to remove the air from the whipped cream). Pour this mixture on top of the lime filling layer of the pie and spread out until smooth. Sprinkle lime zest over top of the pie and serve, or refrigerate until ready to serve.

I hope everyone enjoys the recipe and all the holiday treats!
