Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups finely crushed saltine crackers
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter (6 Tbsp) melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg white beaten
  • 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 4 large egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 2 cups whipped cream OR one 8 ounce container frozen whipped topping for serving (thawed)
  • Lemon and lime zest for garnishing

Instructions

  • Lightly spray a 9 inch pie pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • To Make the Crust: In a medium bowl, toss together crushed crackers, melted butter, sugar, and beaten egg white until combined.
  • Transfer mixture to the prepared pie pan pressing firmly on bottom and sides. Freeze 10-15 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Remove crust from freezer then bake until crust is lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly while you prepare the filling. (About 10-15 minutes.)
  • To Make the Filling: Meanwhile, in a medium bowl whisk together condensed milk and egg yolks until smooth. Whisk in lime juice, lemon juice and salt until combined. Pour filling into warm crust.
  • Bake at 350°F just until the center is set, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 1 hour. Refrigerate until fully chilled and set about 3-4 hours.
  • To Serve: Frost the top with whipped cream or Cool Whip and garnish with lemon and lime zest.
  • To make Homemade Whipped Cream: Beat 1 1/2 cups cream and 1/4 cup powdered sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Beat on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes.
