How to Make a Key Lime Pie with Kermit - Key West style
How to make Key Lime Pie, Key West style
Virtually every travel destination boasts a signature dish that shouldn't be missed by the curious traveler. For example, there's New Orleans' jambalaya, Chicago's deep-dish pizza and Philadelphia' cheese steak sandwich. In the Florida Keys & Key West, that dish is Key lime pie.
Key lime pie is made from the Key lime, a fruit indigenous to the Florida Keys that's smaller and rounder than limes found in a grocery store. Key lime pie is the official pie of the State of Florida, and millions of slices are savored every year by visitors and locals.
While the pie's exact birthdate and creator are unknown, it was likely created in Key West in the late 19th century — predating refrigeration and the Overseas Railway that brought fresh ingredients like milk to the island at high speed.
Recipes for the original Key lime pie did not require refrigeration or baking. Instead, the acid in the Key lime juice reacts chemically with the other ingredients, a process called souring, and cooks the pie.
The typical ingredients of an authentic Key lime pie are sweetened condensed milk, egg yolks, Key lime juice and a piecrust generally made from butter and graham crackers. The egg yolks give the pie a yellowish coloring; green pies are not authentic.
I'm always amazed that these simple ingredients can make such a wonderful pie, said Kermit Carpenter, resident Key lime pie expert and the owner of Kermit's Key West Key Lime Shoppe.
In this video, you can watch Kermit make the pie that made Key West famous!
Ingredients:
200 g chocolate digestive biscuits
50 g butter, melted
1 x 325 g can condensed milk
Bottle of Key Lime juice
6 eggs
Preparation method:
1- Preheat the oven to 200C/gas 6. To make the pie base, pop the biscuits into a roomy plastic bag and secure at one end. Crush, with a rolling pin, until they resemble crumbs. Transfer the crumbs to a mixing bowl and add the melted butter. Stir well to combine.
2. Tip the crumbs into the base of a 22cm loose-bottomed cake tin, pressing down well with your hand.
3. To prepare the filling: Take the yokes from the 6 eggs and add the sweetened condensed milk.
4. Blend this together, and then add the a cup of key lime juice. Whisk for 1-2 minutes. Pour onto the prepared biscuit base.
5. Place into an oven for 20 minutes

Ingredients
Cake
2 ½ cups cake flour
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 box instant vanilla pudding 3.75 oz package
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
½ cup unsalted butter softened
½ cup canola or vegetable oil
½ cup whole milk
4 eggs
½ cup Bacardi Silver Rum
½ cup Key Lime Juice
2 tsp vanilla extract
Confectioner’s sugar optional garnish
Key Lime Syrup
½ cup butter
¼ cup Key Lime Juice
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup Bacardi Silver Rum
Instructions
Cake
1. Preheat oven to 325°. Grease and flour 10” tube or 12-cup bundt pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, add the cake flour, both sugars, pudding mix, baking powder, salt, butter, and oil. Mix at medium speed with an electric mixer until everything is combined and with a sandy texture.
3. Beat in the milk. Follow with the eggs, one at a time.
4. Stir in the rum, key lime juice, and vanilla extract.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50 – 60 minutes or until baked through and a cake tester comes out clean when inserted.
6. Remove the cake from the oven and let cool slightly while you prepare the key lime syrup.
7. With the cake still in the pan, use a long skewer to poke holes all over the bottom of the cake. Pour about a ¼ cup of the syrup over the cake. Allow it to soak in and repeat it again as needed until all the syrup is used.
8. Loosely cover the pan with plastic wrap and allow the cake to cool completely and absorb all the syrup by sitting at room temp overnight.
9. Loosen the edges of the cake before inverting onto the serving plate. Garnish the cake, if desired, by lightly dusting it with confectioner’s sugar and key lime slices.
Key Lime Syrup
1. Melt butter in a saucepan. Stir in juice and sugar. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in rum.
Notes
***If the cake won’t release don’t force it! Place the cake in the oven and turn it on to 350. Warm it for 10 minutes to soften the syrup. Remove the cake from the oven and tip it onto the serving plate. If your oven preheats with a red-hot upper element, place the cake on a lower rack and tent with aluminum foil to protect it. *** ***You can use fresh or bottles of key lime juice. Key Limes weren’t in season when I made this cake, so I used Nellie & Joe’s Key West Lime Juice.***
