I used to make a mean lemon meringue pie in my distant baking youth. Probably did limey ones too but mostly superlemony lemon ones. With chewyfluffy meringue. Yum![]()
Well I made this key lime pie.
I'd recommend a few changes though:
I found the idea that whipped cream could be better than meringue laughable so decided to go with a meringue topping. Just used the spare egg whites and that was enough.
It needed more lime juice, just wasn't sharp enough but still very tasty. I think the crust needs baking off maybe for 10 minutes for more crunch. I cooked it with the meringue and filling for 15 minutes at 180 and that seemed to work out fine.
