Ingredients for Mini Key Lime Pie Bites
How to Make Mini Key Lime Pie Bites
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
Combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Mix well. Add melted butter and mix again until well combined.
Fill each well of your muffin pan with cupcake liners.
Evenly distribute the graham cracker mixture into each cupcake liner. Use the back of your spoon to pack down the mixture well.
Bake for 15 minutes. Then remove and set aside to cool.
In a separate bowl, use a whisk or hand mixer to beat the egg whites until they become fluffy. Do not beat until peaks form.
Add condensed milk, lime juice, and yogurt to the egg whites and beat again until well combined and still fluffy.
Spoon the mixture into each cupcake liner filling about 3/4 of the way full.
Bake 12-15 minutes.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
Top with whipped cream and a bit of lime zest before serving.
Remove cupcake liners and enjoy!

- Make the Mini Key Lime Pie Bites ahead of time and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve. If making them ahead, do not add the topping until ready to serve.
