Ingredients

• 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 14 ounces low-fat sweetened condensed milk
• 0.5 cups key lime juice, freshly squeezed
• 1 tablespoon key lime zest
• 0.5 cups non-fat Greek yogurt, plain
• 2 large egg whites

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and the texture resembles damp sand.

Step 3

Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Use the back of a measuring cup for uniformity.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool slightly while you prepare the filling.

Step 5

In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, key lime zest, Greek yogurt, and egg whites until smooth and well combined.

Step 6

Pour the filling over the pre-baked crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake the bars in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15–17 minutes, or until the filling is just set. It should jiggle slightly but not look liquid in the center.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let the bars cool to room temperature. Then transfer the pan to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.

Step 9

Once chilled, gently lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into 12 squares using a sharp knife, wiping the blade clean between cuts for neat edges.

Step 10

Optional: Garnish with additional lime zest or a dollop of whipped topping before serving.
