Ingredients
  

Gluten Free Graham Cracker Crust:

  • 1 ½ cups gluten free graham crackers
  • ½ cup almond flour * see note for nut-free
  • 6 tablespoons butter melted, unsalted

No-Bake Key Lime Pie Filling

  • 16 ounces cream cheese * see note
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • cup lime juice * see note
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest Note you can use more if you like.

Instructions
 

  • Place the gluten free graham crackers into a food processor and pulse until you have small crumbs. If you do not have a food processor, you can put the graham crackers in a zipper bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
  • Melt the butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Pour it over the graham cracker crumb mixture. Mix well.
  • Spray a pie tin with coconut oil. Pour the crust mixture in the pie pan and press to cover the bottom and the sides of the pan.
  • In a large bowl of a standing mixer, add the softened cream cheese, condensed milk, lime juice, sugar, and zest. Use the whisk attachment. You can also use a hand held electric mixer if you prefer
  • Whip the lime mixture until it is smooth. Pour the filling into the crust. Spread the filling out so that it is covering the crust.
  • Cover loosely with tin foil and refrigerate for at least two hours.

Notes

  1. I used full-fat cream cheese to make this recipe. I haven't tested low-fat or dairy-free cream cheeses.
  2. If you can't find key limes, you can use regular limes.
  3. If you want to make this recipe nut-free, omit the almond flour and add the equivalent amount of additional gluten free graham cracker crumbs.
  4. This pie will keep fresh in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. It will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months.

SPECIAL NOTE

Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn't test, you may need to adjust your moisture levels in your baked goods.
