Did you know that Friday, 3/14, was Pi Day? Pi Day becomes Pie Day in the world of food blogging and eating. I LOVE pies! Many of you have been asking me to do a gluten-free Key Lime Pie recipe roundup, so I thought today would be the perfect day for that.

I’m bridging the gap between actual Pi/Pie Day and St. Patrick’s Day because with most of these recipes having a green component, one of these desserts is sure to do double duty for you! I mean you’re not done celebrating Pie Day, are you?

Isn’t that like celebrating one’s birthday? One day is simply not enough! And with these gluten-free Key Lime pie recipes, you can pretend you’re in Key West!

    • Hey Linda–I’m behind on replying, but it was my pleasure, of course. While I’m certain I would enjoy those muffins very much, it’s that pie that keeps popping into my head! 😉

  4. fyi, you don’t have to go to FL for key limes! I am surrounded by more key limes than I could ever use (the streets are covered with squished limes…) here in So. Cal. — but they are often misidentified as “lemons” because they turn yellow as they ripen (and in Mexican cuisine, “lemon” refers to both lemons and limes, as I learned the hard way by getting recipes from Mexicans calling for “lemon” but needing lime…!). So I am always looking for uses for those tiny, sweet limes — I just wish there were more non-pie ideas…

    • Michele–I knew that Key limes weren’t limited to Key West, but I admit that I usually only consume Key lime anything when I’m in Key West. ;-)They even have gluten-free Key Lime pie there. 🙂 Interesting on your limes turning yellow and lemon referring to both lemons and limes. I’d probably try key limes in anything that called for lemons if I were in your shoes. 😉

  5. Thanks for sharing my recipe, Shirley. Key lime pie is one of my all-time favorite desserts (if not THE favorite — I have a serious love for it going back to childhood). So pumped to see so many amazing allergy-friendly variations here! Love it.
