Blood Orange Icebox Pie
5h 10m
This is an easy dessert recipe that can be completed in less than 1h and just set to rest in the refrigerator or freezer.
The blood orange can be replaced with any citrus, and freezing it makes for a refreshing dessert after any meal.
I started making this pie as part of my Thanksgiving pie spread and it quickly became the most popular dessert at the table, being both tangy and sweet.
The yogurt adds a lighter feel to it and it's the perfect dessert to make all throughout the citrus season.
Pre-heat the oven
Blend 220 g of oat cookies into a fine powder. Transfer to a bowl
Melt 70 g of butter in a saucepan
Add 67 g of sugar and 2 g of salt to the bowl with the oat cookies powder
Add the melted butter and knead to obtain a crumbly mixture
Place the mixture in a tart mold and press down on the bottom and around the edges to form an even layer. Smooth the surface with a spoon
Bake the crust at 180 °C degrees for 15m or until golden brown
Add 350 g of condensed milk and 100 g of yogurt to a bowl
Add 2 eggs and 120 ml of blood orange juice. Mix well

Halve 1 blood orange and slice it
Sprinkle 20 g powdered sugar over the sliced blood orange. Let them sit for 30m
Pour the yogurt and condensed milk mixture into the crust
Bake for 15m at 175 °C, until the curd is set, but the center is still a little wobbly
Let it cool for 30m at room temperature
Transfer to the freezer to chill for 4h. Remove from freezer 1h before serving
