    Ultra smooth and creamy (and secretly healthy!) Key Lime Pie! No dairy, gluten, eggs or artificial ingredients. (No bake, Gluten-Free, Vegan and Paleo!) Jump to RecipeKey Lime Pie made with avocado! Vegan & Paleo

    A Pie that Wins Over Everyone!

    Creamy Key Lime Pie secretly made with healthy ingredients! (You'd never guess it's avocado!) This easy, no-bake pie is a fan favorite.

    It's allergy friendly and fits a variety of diets. You don't have to be vegan or Paleo to love this pie! It gets rave reviews from people with all kinds of diets (even people who don't like healthy food love this Key Lime Pie!)

    Naturally Colorful

    You won't need any artificial food coloring to get this beautiful vibrant green! This pie is naturally colored with... AVOCADO!

    Yes, avocado! (And no, it does not taste like guacamole, although I do love me some guac.)

    This is the creamiest, smoothest pie with a tangy lime punch that is sure to please any key lime pie lovers! Definitely one of my favorites!

    Update 8/2019 -- Even after many years, this pie has remained a family fave and reader favorite too! One of the most popular recipes on Pretty Pies! 🙂

    Naturally Delicious!

    You just need a few whole foods to create this pretty pie: nuts, dates, avocado, lime, maple syrup or honey, and coconut oil, plus a little salt and vanilla.

    That's it! It's super easy, and full of fiber and healthy fats!

    ps. If you're low-carb check out my keto version here 🙂Key Lime Pie

    Does it turn BROWN?

    This is a common question I get! And the answer is NO.

    Lime juice is a natural preservative/antioxidant to keep this pie a lovely green. Really! It's also mixed with other ingredients like coconut oil that help the avocado stay fresh.

    How to Store Avocado Desserts

    This pie will stay fresh for about 3-5 days in the refrigerator. Or, freeze it and tightly wrap for one month.

    Over time, the color will be less vibrant, but it does not turn brown.

    Watch my one minute video to see how EASY this recipe is to make:

      Emily,

      Would the crust ingredients be the same as you use for your lemon pie? I couldn't find them listed, sorry if I just missed it. I just found your site today. I am loving it and printing out all of your delicious sounding recipes. Thank you for the beautiful website and recipes. I am working on being a raw vegan and so far the recipes I have read are a godsend. I love dessert!! Robyn

          Thanks! Prague powder is table salt mixed with sodium nitrite (a preservative for curing meats). They tint it pink to keep people from accidentally using it as table salt 🙂

            I buy it on amazon usually http://amzn.to/2rctgpH Or sometimes I find a good deal at Marshall's, TJ Maxx or Ross 🙂

            You can use another type of salt if you prefer. It will not make a huge impact on the flavor.

            I choose to use natural/unrefined salts that do not have dextrose or other additives/anti-caking agents. Himalayan salt has tons of minerals and the taste is so much better to me. It's a smoother, more round flavor -- not a stark/brash saltiness. I put it on everything. I love it! Highly recommend you try some.

              Do you know why the salt is pink? The color is the result of a high Arsenic content. If it is health you seek, use a kosher salt without additives (ingredients should simply read: Salt).

              Considering there is no chance the color will result in any eye pleasing touches for this recipe, upping the arsenic in ones diet seems silly.

              Also, we have plenty of relatively local salt to eat. Why negatively impact the planet flying arsenic salt (pink salt) around the globe?

              G- You are incorrect.

              Two quick Google searches disprove what you said.

              "Pink Himalayan salt is made from rock crystals of salt that have been mined from areas close to the Himalayas, often in Pakistan. It gets its rosy hue from trace minerals in the salt, like magnesium, potassium and calcium."

              And

              "Himalayan pink salt also contains barely detectable amounts of elements that would be harmful if isolated and consumed in large doses, such as arsenic and uranium,” McGrath says."

              There's *no possible way* anyone could consume enough pink salt for the trace amounts of arsenic to become harmful.
              Especially not the pinch used in this recipe.

        It doesn't!! It's so great. The citric acid in the lime juice keeps it green for a really long time. I would say a week, but mine never lasts that long

        Butter should work, but it will give it a buttery flavor. I haven't tried it myself, but it might be good!
        You can also use palm oil. Or any neutral oil that solidifies when chilled, since that's what holds it together. Hope that helps.

      I used this filling recipe to fill a "crust" adapted from a Paleo macaroon recipe. My family, the non-dieting, regular food-eating types, LOVED it! My young niece preferred it to chocolate pie, and no one had a clue it was avocado until I told them.
      This was my first dessert since beginning an allergy-elimination diet. A real, bona fide dessert I could eat with a fork at the table with my extended family and friends. Not some dates with coconut butter or a bowl of fruit, but DESSERT. Nothing wrong with the others, I eat them all the time. But to have that ability to participate in social dining, and do it well? That's a gift, and I thank you so much for it!

        You can just add it on top as garnish. That's what I usually do 🙂

        But mixing in a teaspoon or so to the filling is good, too. Just be sure to blend it thoroughly so you don't get any grit.

        Probably not, unless your pan is really big. I would make the crust 50% larger for a standard 9" springform. 🙂

      The pie tasted great! My husband said it was a bit tart, but that's what I love about key lime pies. I did have trouble getting it to firm up like it looks in the picture. Mine turned out a bit mushy, even after leaving in the fridge overnight. Should I try using more coconut oil?

        So glad you liked it! Yes, add more coconut oil next time. Especially if your avocados are larger, it needs more oil to hold it together 🙂

        I just made this and when I tasted the filling, I got an avocado aftertaste. Any ideas what I can do to eliminate that? Thanks!

          More sweetener, lime zest or a little salt may help

      This pie has amazing flavor. My daughter in law is gluton intolerant, and she is currently following an allergy elimination diet. As mentioned in an earlier comment, it was so nice to have a real dessert that she could enjoy with the rest of us!
      Thank you sooo much!

        Can you use almond flour for the crust? If so how much?

          That may work (I would probably add some coconut oil.) Try about 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 cups. You can always add more if needed 🙂

      Is there a way I could make this with stevia rather than maple syrup?

      Exactly how long should I allow my pie to set? Also my crust wasn’t as nearly as this! Do you think I should double the recipe for next time?

        It usually takes a few hours to set in the freezer. I would check it after 2 and see if it's solid in the middle yet. It depends on your freezer and the depth of your filling.

        What size is your pan? That affects the thickness of the crust. I use a small (7 inch) springform, and I also pushed the crust up the sides a little. It's not that thick all the way through. But yes, you can double the crust if use a bigger pan, or if you like it thicker. Or even 1.5x might work.

        Hope you enjoy! 🙂

      Isn’t coconut oil already liquid? Why would I need to melt it? Am I using the wrong product?
      I’m super excited to make this.

        My coconut oil is solid 🙂 Maybe my house is colder than yours haha. Coconut oil solidifies below 76 degrees.

        Just be sure you’re not using the kind that stays liquid (it will say on the bottle). It needs to solidify when chilled to hold the pie together.

        Hope you enjoy!

      This looks amazing and a great way to use up avocados!
      Question. I am on the AIP diet, so I can't eat nuts. I am wondering if you have any suggestions if I only did coconut flakes for the crust instead of the almonds? Coconut can be very absorbent and I know better than to swap straight across. I'm sure other people with nut allergies might be wondering the same thing!

        Thanks! It’s a family and fan favorite for sure! 🙂

        Yes you can use coconut in the crust.
        I would try blending 3/4 cup coconut flakes + 3/4 cup dates + a pinch of salt.

        Then add 3 Tbs water and 1-2 Tbs coconut flour (or more) to help with the texture.

        Add a little more flour or water, depending on if it’s too wet or dry, to get the consistency you like.

        Also, if you can have seeds (not sure about AIP) but any type of seed can be swapped for the nuts too. I would use a mixture of different types. Pumpkin (pepitas), hemp hearts, sunflower seeds, ground flax, etc.

        Hope that helps!

          Thank you for the nut-free suggestion! I tried the recipe today and it turned out really nice. I did what you suggested, and only needed to add a little more coconut flour when pressing the crust so it wouldn't stick to my hands. I tried it in mini tart pans and they were lovely!

          P.S. AIP is similar to paleo, but with no inflammatory foods (eggs, nuts, seeds, nightshades). Its been difficult to find dessert recipes with so many limitations so I'm glad I found this one.

      I have been making this recipe for several years now and it is always delicious and a huge hit. I often add chopped mint to make it into a mojito pie. I like to cut it into individual servings which I keep in the freezer.

      Dear miss Emily, I am wondering if I can sub almond flour for the almonds. I do not currently have almonds in my home, but I have all of the other things required for this recipe. Thank you so much for this recipe. I was looking on Google for a recipe and this is the only one that would work. You are a genius.

      Hello,
      I made this last night for my dad's birthday, and it was EXCELLENT!! (I used walnuts instead of almonds, and it turned out great.)
      I'm wondering if in your photo you doubled the ingredients. It looks higher (and prettier) than mine! I love how yours looks.
      Thanks,
      Jennifer

        No I didn’t double it. I used a smaller springform pan - about 7” in diameter 🙂 I think it’s linked in the post somewhere. I’m away from my computer so I can’t see it at the moment. But I found my pan on amazon. Let me know if you need the link!

      This was so surprisingly good:) I have to say I'm not really that much of a fan of key lime pie, and I'm not a fan of avocados, but somehow all of the ingredients come together to make a really tasty treat! Thank you!
