Favorite fruit or Key lime Cheesecake (S)

so......I got an ankering.....for some Key lime Pie...& was DETERMINED to make it...so I can eat it, lol.....so I made some adjustments here & there and still need to fool with it. But I think it turned out pretty well :) NOTE: I have also made this with fresh or frozen raspberries.  I just added 2 c raspberries to the mix.

KEY LIME PIE

Crust

1 1/2 cups almonds (ground)

1/4 c vanilla protein shake (or jay robb)

1/4 c butter (OR coconut oil...yes you can use it in place of butter & is yummy with this)

grind almonds (I did in my Ninja)...add protein powder & butter/coconut oil...press into pan & bake @ 350 for 12-15 mins

Pie filling:
(this is a low carb substitute for sweetened condensed milk)

2 1/2 c heavy whipping cream

6 egg yolks (or egg substitute)

1 cup sweetener

1 tbsp xanthum gum (thickener)

Wisk all and put it on the stove to thicken....let cool

1 pkg of KNOX unflavored gelatin

1 cup hot water

3 egg yolks or substitute

1/2 c KEY LIME juice (this is VERY different from regular lime...so make sure it is KEY LIME)

Dissolve Knox w/ hot water, set aside & let cool. Mix egg yolks, with Key lime juice then add cooled knox gelatin, and the mix from above for the sweetened condensed milk....blend in Ninja or a bowl(better to do a blender or Ninja so it will be smooth). Let chill in refrigerator & top with sugar free cool whip & fruit.
