Key Lime Pie

10 Servings—Dairy-free

 

The smaller, yellower Key lime has a flavor that’s

less harsh yet more intense than the common Persian

lime.

 

 

Crust:

24 graham cracker squares

2 Tbs. sugar

2 Tbs. 1% fat vanilla soy milk

 

 

Filling:

1 1/4 cups 1% fat vanilla soy milk

3/4 cup nonfat egg substitute

2 oz. low-fat silken tofu

3/4 cup sugar

1/2 cup lime juice, preferably from Key limes

1 Tbs. grated lime peel

1 Tbs. tapioca flour or cornstarch

1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

 

 

Meringue:

4 egg whites, at room temperature

1/4 cup sugar

 

1. Preheat oven to 350 & #730;F. Make crust: In food

processor, process graham crackers into fine crumbs

(you should have about 2 cups). Add sugar and soy milk

and process until mixture is texture of sand, about 30

seconds.

2. Lightly coat 10-inch pie plate with cooking spray.

Press crumb mixture into bottom and sides. Bake crust

for 5 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before filling.

 

3. In food processor or blender, combine filling

ingredients and process until smooth. If mixture is

lumpy, press it through sieve. Pour filling into

crust.

4. Bake pie until custard is firm, about 40 minutes.

Let cool.

5. Make meringue: Fill large saucepan halfway with

water and bring to a boil. In metal bowl that will sit

securely on top of saucepan, combine egg whites, sugar

and pinch of salt. Place bowl over hot water. Stir

constantly until egg whites are warm to the touch.

6. Remove bowl from pan and beat with electric mixer

at high speed until stiff peaks form, about 12

minutes. Transfer meringue to pastry bag fitted with

large star tip. Preheat broiler.

7. In lattice pattern, pipe meringue onto pie. Broil 5

inches from heat source until lightly browned.
