Instructions

For The Crust

Preheat your oven to 375℉
Finely crush the gingersnap cookies. In a medium bowl, add the brown sugar, salt and butter to the cookie crumbs until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the cookie mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie tin. Bake for 10-15 minutes, until lightly browned. Set aside to cool while you make the pie filling.

For the filling

In a large bowl, mix together the egg yolks, condensed milk, salt, key lime zest and powdered galangal.
Add the key lime juice to the pie filling mixture and stir well to combine. The mixture should begin to thicken. Pour this mixture into your cooled pie crust.
Bake the pie for 15-20 minutes until the center is set but still wiggly. Cool for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight, before slicing.
