Instructions

1. Heat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
2. Stir the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar and salt (if using) together. Press firmly into a 9-inch metal pie dish, covering the base and sides evenly.
3. Bake for 8–10 minutes until the crust is light golden. Take out and let cool for 30–45 minutes. Leave the oven on.
4. Whisk the egg yolks in a bowl for 1–2 minutes until slightly thickened and pale. Slowly whisk in the condensed milk until smooth, then add the key lime zest and juice and whisk until combined and slightly thickened.
5. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and bake at 350°F (180°C) for 12–15 minutes, until set but still slightly wobbly in the centre. Take out and cool to room temperature, 45–60 minutes.
6. Refrigerate until fully cold, 3–4 hours, covering after the first 2 hours.
7. Beat the cream, powdered sugar and vanilla on medium speed until soft peaks form, 2–4 minutes.
8. Spread the whipped cream over the chilled pie, top with extra key lime zest, then slice and serve.
