Zesty Lime Pie Recipe A Slice of Sunshine Perfection

Instructions:

1. Combine flour and salt in a bowl. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough comes together. Form into a disc, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 20 minutes.
2. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface and transfer it to the pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges. Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20 minutes. Remove the parchment paper and pie weights, then bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Let cool completely.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, egg yolks, lime juice, and lime zest until smooth.
4. Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust.
5. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20 minutes, or until the filling is set but still has a slight jiggle in the center.
6. Let the pie cool completely at room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. This zesty lime pie recipe benefits from chilling.
7. Garnish with whipped cream, lime slices, and/or lime zest before serving.
