Key Lime Pie

Tart key limes and farm fresh eggs paired with a buttery crust and smooth whipped cream make this Key Lime Pie the perfect summer dessert! 

This post and recipe was created for #SummerDessertWeek! I was sent samples by some of the sponsor companies but as always opinions are 100% mine.

I’m super excited to share this recipe for Key Lime Pie with you because not only is it delicious, but it’s a part of #SummerDessertWeek and my ‘‘Farm to Fork’ series!

Scroll down to the bottom for all the details for #SummerDessertWeek!

Previously in the ‘Farm to Fork’ series I shared a recipe for Homemade Strawberry Preserves and Farmhouse Fresh Bread using ingredients from Good for You Farm.

For this Key Lime Pie, I used eggs I gathered at Good for You Farm.  GFY Farm is a veteran owned small farm in Virginia owned by my friends Marc & Sarah.  Marc is a Marine Corps wounded veteran who thrives every day he gets to build and work on his farm.

Sarah turned me on to farm fresh eggs so I knew I had to use them in a Key Lime Pie!

This pie is really simple to make.  There are only a few ingredients and takes no skill at all to make.  The filling is tart and creamy and paired with the rich buttery crust and smooth, light whipped cream… you can’t go wrong!

The sponsored products from our #SummerDessertWeek that  I used in my Key Lime Pie are:

• Dixie Crystals granulated sugar
• OXO glass pie plate

If you don’t have access to fresh eggs from a local farm, no worries… you can still make this pie!  Try buying the organic eggs at your local store or maybe look around your area for a farm that sells them.  They really do make a magical difference in this recipe!

Happy Baking!
