Sarah Carey’s Key Lime Tart Recipe – Everyday Food with Sarah Carey

This quick and easy key lime tart is the more refined sister to the famous key lime pie. Similar to the pie, this tart is made with one of the most defining ingredients: sweetened condensed milk. The original recipe was first developed by early Bahamian settlers and is said to have been around for more than 100 years. The thick tart crust is made from graham crackers and holds a deliciously creamy and tangy filling.

[Music] have you ever had key lime pie it’s actually really really easy to make today I’m going to share a recipe with you it’s not exactly a pie it’s a tart today I’m actually using regular limes instead of key limes they’re a little bit more accessible but if you can get your hands on some key limes I highly recommend using them to start off with though you need to make your gram cracker crust 9 to 10 gram crackers grind them up in your food processor I’m listening to see if it sounds like they’re all ground up okay that’s good to that add four tablespoons of melted unsalted butter and 2 tbspoon of sugar have your oven preheating right now to 350° cuz you’re going to bake this before you add your filling process it until everything is moistened by the butter this is an instance where you don’t have to worry about overprocess it you actually want everything to come together and be a little bit sticky sck and then press it into a 9 in pan this is a tart pan with a removable bottom the lime filling is so intense and delicious you really don’t need that much so all your crumb mixture goes into your pan a nice even layer and then I take the bottom of a measuring cup and press it in really Tamp it down and make it really nice and firm into the sides as well and as you can see I have my tart Pan on a rimmed baking sheet for ease of moving it around once your crust is even evenly pressed in put this directly into a 350° oven and bake it until it just sort of gets a little bit fragrant and turns slightly darker golden brown about 10 minutes cooked crust for the filling you’ll need 3/4 of a cup of fresh lime juice I don’t care if you use key lime or regular lime just don’t use the bottled stuff it won’t taste as good I have a half a cup of sugar in this bowl to that add 14 oz of sweetened condensed milk add your lime juice whisk together and then you want to add four egg yolks you want to separate your eggs just want the egg yolks so be careful want to save your egg whites maybe you want to put mering on top of your pie so you want to make sure you don’t get any yolk inside of your whites whisk your egg yolks in once everything is nice and smooth a pinch of salt it heightens the flavor of all dishes that’s why I put it into everything that I cook if you bang on the bowl a little bit it releases some of the air bubbles pour the filling into the crust carefully and then put it back into the oven until it’s set 20 to 25 minutes when it comes out of the oven you want to make sure to let it cool completely and then put it into the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to completely set but isn’t that beautiful if you want to you can grate a little bit of lime zest over the top it is quite pretty and it gives an indication of what’s inside you could put a little mering you could put a little whipped cream but I don’t want to cover up any of that Tangy delightfulness with anything pure and simple lime tart for me to you so Tangy so aromatic you’re going to love it hi guys thanks for watching this video be sure to click here if you want to subscribe and click over here if you want to continue watching more great videos like this
