Key Lime Pie w/ Rice Krispie Crust

Updated at: Wed, 16 Aug 2023 19:46:11 GMT

Step 1

Prepare the crust like you would a rice krispie treat: Melt the butter in the bottom of a large saucepan, over medium heat. Add the marshmallows and stir until they are completely melted. Then, turn off the heat and add the Rice Krispies cereal, stirring until they’re evenly coated in marshmallow.

Step 2

To form the crust, spoon your mixture into a springform pan and use a wooden spoon (and your fingers) to push the Rice Krispies down and compact a solid layer at the base and on the sides. You might have to work at this a bit to make sure all sides of the crust are even. But don’t skimp! ...a lot of the pie’s sweetness comes from the crust.

Step 3

To prepare the filling, simply put all ingredients into a food processor and blend until completely smooth. There should be no lumps of avocado and the filling should be the texture of a thick pudding.

Step 4

Scoop the filling into your prepared Rice Krispie crust and smooth it out with a wooden spoon until it’s even.

Step 5

Place in the refrigerator to set overnight.

Step 6

Before serving, top the pie with your choice of whipped topping.

Step 7

Before placing your filling into the crust, taste it. This pie is pretty tart and you can add more agave (or your preferred sweetener) to adjust to your liking.

Step 8

Note: fresh key limes can be hard to find. You can substitute for standard limes, but always use fresh fruit. The key lime juice you find in stores is highly processed and has a much different (artificial) flavor.
