Can you freeze Key lime yogurt pie?
It is possible to freeze a Key lime yogurt pie made with gelatin, but only if you plan to serve the slices frozen. Trying to thaw the pie from frozen will leave the filling loose and watery. Cover the set pie tightly with freezer-proof pie wrap and store it in the freezer for up to three months. It can join your other favorite frozen dessert recipes.
Key Lime Yogurt Pie Tips
How do you get a clean slice of no-bake pie?
The first step to getting a clean slice of Key lime yogurt pie is ensuring the filling sets completely. Chill the pie for at least two hours, or plan for several hours or overnight if possible. Run a sharp chef’s knife (one of four must-have kitchen knives) under warm water and dry it before slicing the pie. Have a damp paper towel ready to wipe the knife clean between slices. Then, carefully use a pie knife to move the slices onto dessert plates.
Can you make this yogurt pie in other flavors?
Yes, this Key lime pie with lime Jell-O is so easy to make that it’s worth experimenting with other fruity flavors! Pair gelatin mix with yogurt flavors like peach, cherry, raspberry or strawberry. Combine them with the thawed whipped topping as the recipe directs, and then chill the pie.
