I have to stress I don't bake well and was able to make this and it was delicious! The crust and filling were so easy and tasty. The only thing I did differently was add a little more lime juice because I am craving tart pies, the pie actually is not overly tart with a little more than half a cup of line juice. I also didn't put sugar in the crust because I forgot but I don't miss it at all. I actually feel like the sugar would make it too sweet. Again great recipe thanks!

I tasted the batter just before I folded it into the pie crust and it was unbelievable!! While shopping at the store I was able to get real Key Limes so I obviously tweeked that and used just under than 1/2 cup of juice with some advice from a friend about the tartness of the keylime. I also bought the store-made pie crust but to increase the taste, I melted butter and whipped an egg white and brushed them both on the crust, including some key lime zest from your original recipe, and baked just the crust for 6 min on 375 and let cool before adding the mixture. Im sure, because of your help, my family and friends will enjoy the finale to our meal tonight. Thank you!

You haven't really eaten Key Lime Pie until you have eaten "The World's Greatest Key Lime Pie", at Kutchie Pelaez's "Kutchie's Key West Kutcharitaville Cafe."...Google Kutchie's Key West. See what I'm talking about. Key Lime Pie just doesn't get any better than Kutchie's World Award Winning Key Lime Pies. My family has been eating Kutchie's Key Lime Pies for Over 30 years. Now that's saying something. God Bless You Kutchie, keep-it up. Love and Kisses. ....Anna Banana Steve’s Key Lime Pie!

The fresh egg yolks and zest in the crust could easily compensate for the use of Persian limes. I always recommend using FRESH Persians when key limes are not available (not a plug, but we sell them here at the bakery). Bottled juice is highly recommended when stripping paint or removing rust, NOT in food. I also agree with Martha, all of our 10" pie crusts are hand (finger) made. By the way, I get requests for KLP recipes all the time, if you don't mind I'd like to include this URL when replying. Again, thanks much, say hello next time you're here and next time you're in the mood to make another one, the key limes are on me.

It's chilling in the fridge now, and I can't wait to cut into it! BTW, I found key limes (via Mexico :-) at the local farmer's market for only 38 cents a pound - much cheaper than I expected. It took about a pound and a half to get a half cup of juice, but it was fun making this pie. I made the pie this afternoon for a bbq this evening.

Most supermarkets carry it. I also like to make whipped cream to top it with instead of meringue.
