To make this Lime Macadamia Pie, you will need the following ingredients:
For the crust:
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup macadamia nuts, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the filling:
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup lime juice
- 1 tablespoon lime zest
- 3 egg yolks
- 1/2 cup macadamia nuts, chopped
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, macadamia nuts, sugar, and melted butter. Mix well until the mixture is evenly moistened. Press the mixture into a 9-inch pie dish, making sure to press it firmly into the bottom and up the sides. Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove it from the oven and let it cool.
While the crust is cooling, prepare the filling. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, lime zest, and egg yolks until well combined. Stir in the chopped macadamia nuts. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is set.
Once the pie is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. You can serve it immediately or chill it in the refrigerator for a few hours before serving.
This Lime Macadamia Pie is a perfect combination of sweet and tangy flavors, with a crunchy texture from the macadamia nuts. It is a great dessert for any occasion, and is sure to impress your guests.
