About the Recipe
While the name of this pie was originally a misheard joke, it has since stuck, and everyone knows a bitch has to be a bit salty so it's enjoyed with love and a laugh. The saltine crust of this pie adds a buttery salty delicious bite that accents the tangy filling perfectly.
Ingredients
For the Crust
1 1/2 sleeves of saltine crackers
1/2 cup softened butter (use salted butter if you want a bit more bite)
3 tablespoons honey
For the Filling
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup lime juice
1/2 tsp real cinnamon
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Step 2
Press into an 8 inch pie pan. Chill for 15 minutes, then bake for 18 minutes or until the crust colors a little.
Step 3
While the crust is cooling (it doesn't need to be cold), beat the egg yolks into the milk, then beat in the citrus juice. It is important to completely combine these ingredients.
Step 4
Pour into the shell and bake for 16 minutes until the filling has set.
Step 5
Chill the pie at least 2 hours. The pie needs to be completely cold to be sliced. Serve with course sea salt for people who want their pie to talk back a bit more.
