Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a small pie pan with parchment paper. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a food processor, pulse graham crackers and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar until finely ground. Add melted butter and pulse until well combined. (5 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Spoon 2 tablespoons of the graham cracker mixture into each of the 6 half-pint jars, pressing firmly into the bottom. Place the jars onto a large, rimmed baking sheet. Press the remaining graham mixture into the bottom of the prepared pie pan. (10 minutes)

04

Step
15 mins

Bake jars and pie pan in the preheated oven until the graham cracker mixture is golden brown, approximately 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. (15 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (2 minutes)

06

Step
10 mins

In a large bowl, whisk together condensed milk and egg yolks until smooth. Add Key lime juice and 1 1/2 teaspoons lime zest; whisk until thoroughly combined. Pour the Key lime mixture evenly into the cooled jars. (10 minutes)

07

Step
12 mins

Bake the jars until the Key lime mixture is just set, about 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool. Refrigerate the jars until ready to assemble and serve. (12 minutes)

08

Step
5 mins

In a chilled bowl, beat heavy cream and 1 teaspoon granulated sugar with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip. (5 minutes)

09

Step
5 mins

To assemble, top each jar with fresh raspberries, a generous dollop of whipped cream, and a sprinkle of the remaining graham cracker crust and lime zest. Serve chilled and enjoy! (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a thin layer of raspberry jam between the crust and the Key lime filling.
If you don't have Key limes, regular limes will work in a pinch, but the flavor will be slightly different.
The pies can be made a day ahead of time. Just wait to add the whipped cream and raspberries until just before serving to prevent them from getting soggy.

    I substituted regular limes and it still tasted amazing! So easy to make and perfect for a summer dessert.

    Absolutely delicious! The perfect balance of tart and sweet.

  • Callie Torp

    These were a huge hit at my daughter's birthday party! Everyone loved having their own little pie.

  • Raina Ratke

    The crust was a little crumbly for me. Next time, I'll try adding a bit more melted butter to help it hold together better.
