KEY LIME FILLING:

Instructions
 

  • Grease an 8 inch pie pan (and line with parchment paper in the bottom if desired) and set aside.
  • To make the crust place the butter into a large saucepot and heat over high heat. Stir often. After about 3 minutes, the butter will start to froth up and brown flecks will appear. Keep whisking and once the butter is medium brown, lower the heat to low and stir in the milk powder, and sweeteners. Whisk the mixture well while gently heating. Whisk until the mixture is well combined. Remove from heat. Place the mixture into the prepared 8 inch pie pan. Set in the fridge to cool.
    1/2 cup salted butter, 1/2 cup milk powder, 3 tablespoons powdered allulose, 1 teaspoon stevia glycerite
  • Place the heavy cream and key lime into a medium saucepan. Sprinkle over the gelatin. Whisk together and allow to sit for 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, heat over medium high heat and bring to a simmer.
    1 1/3 cup heavy cream, 1 teaspoon Further Food gelatin, 1/3 cup key lime juice
  • In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, yolk, sweeteners, LMNT Citrus Lime salt, lime zest and use a whisk to add in half of the hot cream mixture. Whisking continuously to temper the eggs. Then slowly whisk the tempered egg mixture into pan of hot cream. Stir in the butter and remove it from the heat. 
    2 large eggs, 1 large egg yolk, 2/3 cup powdered allulose, 1 packet LMNT Citrus Lime Salt, 1 teaspoon stevia glycerite, 1 tablespoon grated lime zest, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Cook another 5 minutes, whisking continuously, until the mixture begins to thicken.
  • Remove from heat and whisk in the butter and salt. Taste and adjust sweetness to your liking.
  • Pour the mixture into the baked pie crust and spread to the edges of the crust. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • OPTIONAL: Place heavy cream, sweetener and salt into a whipped cream canister (or whip with a hand mixer until medium stiff peaks form). Spray or spread the whipped cream over the top of the chilled pie and garnish with lime wedges. Enjoy!
  • Store extras in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days. Do not freeze.
