Key Lime Bars Recipe

Do you ever check out the recipes on packages? I was looking at our can of Key Lime Pie filling and found this great recipe for Key Lime Bars.

I just knew I had to make them right then and there since I had everything I needed in the house!

I try and keep a well-stocked pantry filled with my favorite canned goods. We travel a ton so it is great coming home and having everything I need to make dinner or a treat in the pantry.

These Key Lime Bars are amazing! So easy to make and so tasty! They always remind me of Key Lime Pie in the Florida Keys. So delicious and the perfect sweet treat when we are home and not soaking up the sun in Florida.

Ingredient

  • Graham cracker crumbs
  • Sugar
  • Butter
  • Key Lime Creme Pie Filling
  • Coconut

Directions

pre-heat oven to 350 Degrees

Press mixture evenly into your 9X9 pan, bake for 10 minutes

    I want to make little tarts instead of bars and was wondering it they can be frozen for a later use? I have six cans that I want to use before their expiration date. Thank you.

    These sound delicious! I didn't realize canned fruits and veggies were similar in nutrition to fresh or frozen.... good to know! We definitely throw out old fruits and veggies too often.

    Key Lime is such a favorite of mine. I will definitely have to try these. I did smile because nothing goes to waste here and that makes me feel so good. If I can't dehydrate it meaning fresh fruits and veggies I can freeze it or create something else wonderful 🙂 Love the can recycle information tho its so important for people to know that 🙂
