Key Lime Tart – Puff Pastry

I love key lime pie, it is one of my favorite desserts. However, when I was trying to make one the other day, I realized I ran out of biscuits. I normally crush biscuits into small pieces and then press it into the pie base. Without biscuits, without pie base. I really wanted the key lime pie that day, so I decided to improvise. There was some puff pastry in my fridge so I used them as the ‘pie’ base. It turned out amazing so I am sharing this recipe with you today. I named it key lime tart, the puff pastry version.

Ingredients for this key lime tart – puff pastry

Lemon, lime, condensed milk, egg, food coloring (love these ones! But in this case use liquid coloring is easier then using the gel ones), puff pastry, flour, and butter

A few things that help

You can use all limes without lemons like the traditional key lime pie recipe. There were some lemons around the house, that is why I used them in this recipe. The recipe turned out amazing. I have also tried key lime pie recipe that only uses limes, and loves that too!

I recently stumble upon a video that shows you how to separate egg yolk with egg white. It is very useful. Basically, you crack the egg into a bowl, then use a clean empty bottle to suck the egg yellow out of the egg. I have not tried that yet, but the video instruction made it looks very easy.

Vibrant food coloring makes all the key lime tarts look pretty, I found the color shows the best is pink. Yellow is not showing up much after the baking. If you plan to only use one color for this recipe, go for pink! Also, I suggest using liquid coloring or mix gel coloring with water beforehand. You want to spread the color easily. Concentrated color paste would be a nightmare to spread around!
