Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 1 Large Egg Yolk
- 1/4 Cup Lime Juice 2-3 Limes

- 14 Ounces Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 1 Cup Flour
- 10 Tablespoons Butter softened slightly, but still chilled*
- 1 Cup Brown Sugar
- 1 Cup Oats
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 Pinch Salt
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350, and grease an 8x8 inch baking dish.
- Whisk the egg yolk, lime juice, zest and sweetened condensed milk together in a small bowl until smooth.1 Tablespoon Lime Zest, 1/4 Cup Lime Juice, 1 Large Egg Yolk, 14 Ounces Sweetened Condensed Milk
- In a separate bowl, using a pastry cutter, or fork, mix together the flour, butter, brown sugar, oats, baking soda and salt. At the end I like to use my hands to incorporate the butter a little more evenly into the mix.10 Tablespoons Butter, 1 Cup Flour, 1 Cup Brown Sugar, 1 Cup Oats, 1 teaspoon Baking Soda, 1 Pinch Salt
- Press half of the dry oat mixture into the pan and bake for 9-10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and pour the Lime mixture over the crust.
- Sprinkle the remaining oat mixture evenly over the top and place back in the oven for an additional 15 min.
- Allow to cool and place in the fridge for 1-2 hours and serve.
Notes
*I get the the butter out about 15 minutes before I need it and let it sit on the counter. This way it isn't rock solid, but still has a chill on it when I go to mix it in.
