Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups reduced-fat graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 8 ounces light cream cheese
- 14 ounces fat-free sweetened condensed milk
- 0.5 cup freshly squeezed key lime juice
- 1 tablespoon lime zest
- 1 cup fat-free whipped topping
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar.
Melt the unsalted butter and add it to the crumb mixture, stirring until all the crumbs are moistened.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then remove it and let it cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the light cream cheese until smooth using an electric mixer.
Add the fat-free sweetened condensed milk to the cream cheese and blend until fully incorporated.
Slowly add the key lime juice while continuing to mix until the mixture is smooth and thick.
Fold in the lime zest gently with a spatula.
Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours to set.
Before serving, spread the fat-free whipped topping over the top of the pie.
Garnish with additional lime zest or slices of lime, if desired.
Slice and serve your low fat Key Lime Pie chilled for best flavor.
