Dairy-Free Recipe for Key Lime Pie Will Blow You Away

This dairy-free recipe for Key Lime Pie has no refined sugar and is made with a gluten-free pecan crust. It is so nutritious, you could seriously eat it for breakfast (and trust me, at our house, we do!) But what about taste? After all, if you take a look at a traditional recipe for Key Lime Pie, you’ll see it does not appear to have been concocted with clean eating in mind. So then, is my cleaned up recipe for Key Lime Pie even worth eating? When you compare the ingredients in my recipe below next to a conventional key lime pie, you are going to think most certainly not. After all, my recipe has no refined sugar, no graham crust, no whipping cream, no condensed milk, no cream cheese and not a single naughty item added. I realize the thought of a healthy pie that actually tastes amazing sounds way too good to be true, but I promise you will not be disappointed.

Recipe For Key Lime Pie Calls for REAL Key Lime Juice

The recipe is really very easy to make. The one big thing to keep in mind is that you really do need to use real Key Lime juice for the best results. Standard lime juice simply will not give you the tart and tangy taste of a real deal Key Lime Pie. Nellie & Joe’s Famous Key West Lime Juice is what you should look for. Nellie & Joe’s is as close as you will get to bringing a taste of the Keys to your dinner table. It is now a nationally recognized brand shipped throughout the United States and even overseas to Europe and Asia. The only other ingredient in the recipe that you may not be well acquainted with is the arrowroot. This is just a natural thickener and is relatively easy to find in any natural foods store. And finally, if you want to take this recipe for Key Lime Pie over the top, then add a dollop of freshly whipped coconut cream. It’s easy to make and it’s definitely worth the extra 5 minutes.

I’m looking for a dairy free key lime filling for a sandwich cookie. Can I use your filling recipe and bake it in a dish by itself...allow it to cool, then put it in a ziplock bag to pipe onto the cookies? Or do you have any other suggestions?

I am not sure the filling will work if piped, after it's been baked. But, if you try it out, please send a photo, would love to see how it turned out!
