(Keep in mind, there&#8217;s a little baking needed here, though.) Preheat your oven to 350\u00baF. Crush up the graham crackers. You&#8217;ll need 2-3\/4 cups. Then stir the crushed graham crackers together with 1\/4 cup sugar and a stick of melted butter.

You can leave it out at room temperature to serve for about an hour, but be sure to cover and chill it after serving.<\/p>\n<h2>No-Bake Key Lime Pie Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1969405\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/No-Bake-Key-Lime-Pie_TOHJJ25_247123_DR_11_17_4b.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"No Bake Key Lime Pie on a pie plate with some sliced lemons\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Can you use regular limes instead of Key limes?<\/h3>\n<p>Absolutely! You can use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/key-lime-vs-lime\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/key-lime-vs-lime\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">regular limes in place of Key limes<\/a> in any Key lime recipe. Key limes are a bit more tart than their traditional counterparts, but the results of this substitution will still be delicious.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re set on using Key limes, keep an eye out for them in the summer when they&#8217;re in season. They can be more challenging to find the rest of the year. Also, Key limes are much smaller than regular limes, so consider purchasing three or four Key limes for every regular lime you&#8217;d normally use.<\/p>\n<h3>What do I serve with no-bake Key lime pie?<\/h3>\n<p>Key lime pie is a gem on its own and doesn\u2019t really need any other food accompaniments. If you\u2019re looking for a wine pairing, though, a sweet and bubbly Prosecco, Lambrusco or Moscato d\u2019Asti is a treasure with this pie.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1452458\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/GettyImages-1045606086.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">bhofack2\/Getty Images<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A great pie doesn&#8217;t have to take all day.
