Thank you for all the work you did baking all these pies! Very helpful and insightful!

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Sorry for the delay but thank you so much!!

[@eristicfreethinker2098]

You do not talk too fast! Succinct and fantastic descriptions of the nuanced differences of these recipes. Bless you for doing this and kudos for doing it so well.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it 🥹

[@lurklingX]

bless your heart. THE EFFORT. the thought of making all 9 is staggering. thank you for your sacrifice.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

thank you so so much!!

[@terrybentz6508]

I was looking for a great key lime recipe for my father's 86 birthday. Key Lime Pie is his favorite. Great job!

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you so much--hope you had a great celebration!

[@lik--]

Which one of the 9 did you do?

[@mattneillninasmom]

Amazing compilation and effort = thank you! Wondering what you think of the "no bake" key lime pies?

[@nikkistevens6312]

I appreciate this review ! The time and effort it too just to make this video man !! I think I'm try the divas can cook one !! Thanks again!

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Woo hope you loved it!!

[@gilguzman8359]

Excellent review. When it comes to comparing anything, I like to predetermine which “should” be the best so as to set the bar high and see if any others can clear it.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Love it! CI is definitely that for me.

[@sharonsolana]

Amazing compilation! Time to make a key lime pie!

[@user-ajp-4891]

Thank you for those! I’m not a baker but I love key lime and I need to try to make it so it’ll be in my repertoire.

[@tinadube6163]

Thank you so much for all of this! Appreciate your content ❤️❤️❤️

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you so much!!

[@jtf267]

Thank you. I’ve been searching for a recipe to make my first key lime pie. It’s my sister’s family favorite. Interestingly, none of the nine pies you tried showed up on my KZbin search. I think I’ll try the Cook’s Illustrated. Happy thanksgiving.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Hope you loved CI!

[@kaitlynchiu4973]

Yay! I've never had key lime before so this was super helpful ☺️

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

So glad to hear, Kaitlyn!

[@annaferguson5711]

Just found you from tiktok - these videos are all so cool and labor intensive!!! Thank you!

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

I'm so glad you're enjoying them!!

[@Jess-wu9dx]

Thank you for this round up!

[@carlcat]

My recipe is similar to cooks illustrated but, instead I use 5 egg yolks and 3/4 cup of "Nellie and Joe's" key lime juice. I get a little more pie filling and slightly more lime flavor and tartness. Sometimes If I want to keep the calories down and a little lazy I used a premade graham cracker crust. I've even used non fat sweetened condensed milk and there's very little difference from full fat. I don't use zest. Thanks for the recipes.

[@corlissyamasaki3476]

Thank you for comparing the key lime pies! My tree has a real good crop right now so I want to try making one.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Ahh how amazing--I'd love to grow my own key limes!

[@LJHolly]

This honestly just saved my mental health after debating sour cream vs egg yolks for an hour 😂

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Omg THRILLED TO HEAR hahaha you sound like me trying to decide between recipes!

[@ericaheather7230]

Hey Erica thank you for the upload. I was just going to make key lime pie, what a happy coincidence.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Wooo hope you made a great one!!

[@rosanegaertner361]

Which pie had the most chewy (not like cheese cake but more like a super soft caramel) custard filling?

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

I'm not sure any really had a chewy/caramel-y filling tbh...Divas Can Cook probably is closest to being "chewy" but leans more creamy.

[@loriesau543]

Thanks so much!

[@lurklingX]

AIRY was the word i was thinking for the one, and then you said it, too. (PEPE'S) that one was the most intriguing, like i wanted to reach in and try it. other than that, the sour cream and cream cheese options sound like they'd be a lot less hassle to make. the sour cream one having more keylime flavor makes me think it'd be the one to try first. overall, i like the pie to keep its shape, no matter the type - like the first several flan-y ones vs the denser egg-free ones.

[@tiffany7023]

Which would be best frozen and dipped in chocolate.

[@jpcarrster]

Good video, very well done. You should have your own cooking show.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you so much!

[@akemikochan]

Kind of wish you had tried Kermit's recipe, but maybe one of these had it. Give credit to you for making all these. Everyone has a different preference of what is good from tartness, texture and then it comes down to crust and filling to crust ratio and then knit picking the whip cream.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Interesting, I'll have to look for that recipe!

[@imperialsugar]

Love key lime!!

[@Mimi1943100]

If you haven’t tried the Key Lime Cheese cake by Emeril Lagasse which appears on KZbin! The best recipe, by far!

[@Willyman1942]

Chef Billy Parisi… tried 5 other KZbin pies and that’s my favorite. Please try it

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

I'll have to try it!

[@ZahraThania]

Please make on for soft cookies!

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

These lofthouse cookies are VERY soft and delicious! kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZinpHl-n6mhqZo

[@Cferrerbosch]

You are the BEST

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you so much!!!

[@spencerdasilva]

would love to see non graham cracker crust key lime pies tested.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Maybe next time!

[@michaelyabut5969]

I wish the recipes were a little more different than each other. Maybe some browned butter graham crust, meringues, or even cream cheese/key lime cheesecakes. Anyway, the production quality was high

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you! I try to choose similar recipes for consistency and a fair testing process, but I do think a brown butter crust would be incredible!

[@isabelissimaa]

Julie in the beginning hahah

[@Blaorcopycat]

Recipes ???

[@Terri-o5q]

can anyone just make a key lime pie without condensed milk??

[@annalizacocos-lopez6575]

you speak so fast!

[@betty13231]

Too much talk sorry

[@angelwild5665]

I had to leave. Are you highly caffeinated or nervous or ? The words went by at an uncomfortably fast rate. Slow down and breathe, pls.

[@goldenscream7917]

I thought it was like, a very comfortable pace of speech. Worst case, slow down the video to .75X cause KZbin had it so that the pitch is the same? Idk, but it was a very normal talking rate

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

@@goldenscream7917 thank you for this! For the record, this is my normal talking pace lol

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Sorry you didn't enjoy my normal talking pace!

[@gloriajohnson8762]

You talk too fast

[@brigidbac1438]

Gee . You talk too fast

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

I have a lot of content to get through ;)
