    About this recipe for Easy Key Lime Pie.

     
    This recipe for key lime pie is flavored with lime gelatin that has no added sugar in it.

    Whipped topping is added to the gelatin to give it the lush texture that you would expect from a lime pie.

    Did you try my Sugar Free Strawberry Jello Pie

    That is a similar recipe to this one. However, this recipe is key lime flavored while that recipe is strawberry flavored.

    To make this recipe you will need sugar free lime flavored gelatin. You can find lime flavored gelatin here.

    What is Key Lime Pie?

    A true 'Key Lime Pie' is a baked pie that is made with ingredients such as key limes (juice and zest), eggs, and sweetened condensed milk. While key lime pie is delicious, it also has sugar and other ingredients that you may not want in your pie.

    Key lime pie gets its name from the location of its origin. If you have ever traveled to the Florida Keys, you probably have seen many tasty versions of key lime pie.

    What is the difference between key lime and lime pie?

    Technically, this is a lime pie recipe that is intended to be lower in sugar and easier to make. That is, this is a no bake and sugar free lime pie recipe.

    However, if you want more of a key lime flavor, you can add a bit of key lime juice to your pie. I would not add more than a tablespoon or so as you already are adding lime flavor. Also, make sure that your key lime juice does not have added sugar.

    Sugar Free Key Lime Jello Pie

    Here are some tips for making Jello pie.

    Key lime pie seems to taste even more authentic when you serve it with slices of lime. You can also top your pie with lime zest as well.

    Here are some more tips for you.

    1. This recipe uses a tub of whipped topping such as Cool Whip. There are sugar free versions of this available in the freezer section of most large grocery or box stores.
    2. This recipe uses both boiling water and ice cold water. It is essential that you use the boiling and the ice water as the reaction is what helps the pie set.
    3. While I am providing you with a pie crust recipe, you are welcome to use the pie crust of your choice. You can even use a premade pie crust if desired.

    How to store sugar free lime pie.

    This pie should be well covered and refrigerated for up to five days.
    However, this pie does not tend to freeze well like similar pudding versions do.

      When sugar free means aspartame, we just substitute one poison with another.
