Key Lime Cream Pie
Tart and refreshing, the perfect
summer dessert.
Preparation: 15 – 20 minutes, plus chilling time.
Makes 12 servings
Cooking spray
2 cups fat-free vanilla yogurt
(without cornstarch or gelatin)
1-1/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup key lime juice
2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
1/3 cup cold water
1large egg white
1-1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about
14 whole graham crackers)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
and cooled
2teaspoons finely chopped lime zest
2/3 cup heavy cream
Lightly coat a 9-inch pie plate with cook-
ing spray. Preheat oven to 350° F.
Place yogurt in a yogurt strainer or a
sieve lined with a coffee filter; set over
a bowl to drain until it measures 1-1/2
cups, about 1 hour.
In a 3–quart saucepan, combine the
sugar and lime juice over medium high
heat and let come to a boil. Continue to
cook until the mixture registers 239° F
on a candy thermometer (soft ball
stage), about 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer
to a stainless steel bowl. Sprinkle the
gelatin over the cold water and let soft-
en for 5 minutes. Stir into the hot sugar
mixture until dissolved. Allow to cool,
about 1 hour. While the sugar syrup
cools, make the crust.
Use the chef’s whisk to beat the egg
white on speed 7 until frothy, about
25 seconds. Using speed 1, stir in the
graham cracker crumbs and butter
until crumbly in appearance, about
10 seconds. Press the graham cracker
mixture firmly into the bottom and sides
of the prepared pie plate. Bake in the
preheated 350° F oven for 10 minutes;
cool completely on a rack.
Use the chef’s whisk to blend the
reduced yogurt and zest into the cooled
sugar syrup on speed 1 until smooth,
about 30 seconds. Chill for 30 minutes.
Use the chef’s whisk to beat the heavy
cream on speed 5 until moderately stiff,
about 50 to 60 seconds. Using a large
rubber spatula, fold the whipped cream
into the chilled yogurt mixture. Spoon
into the prepared crust. Chill at least 4
hours before serving.
