Atlantic Beach Pie
A lemon lime pie with a sweet-salty crunchy crust that makes this pie so special. @mostdeliciouslife.com
- 1 ½ sleeves soda crackers
- ½ cup butter, softened
- 3 Tbsp sugar
Filling
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 4 egg yolks
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- ¼ cup lime juice
Topping
- 1½-2 cups heavy whipping cream
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 1 medium lemon, grated
- 1 medium lime, grated
Preheat oven to 350°.
Crush crackers with rolling pin, but not too finely. Stir in sugar.
Mix softened butter into cracker crumbs. I like to use my hands for this to make sure it is completely mixed.
Press into an 8-9 inch pie dish and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Bake for 15-18 minutes until crust begins to color. Cool.
Whisk egg yolks into the milk. Then whisk in the lemon and lime juice. Mix very well.
Pour into the pie shell (it doesn't need to be completely cooled) and bake 14-17 minutes until the filling is set.
Cover and refrigerate until completely chilled.
In medium bowl, whip heavy cream until medium-firm peaks form. Whip in the powdered sugar.
Spoon onto chilled pie and garnish with fresh lemon and lime zest.
