Method:
- Preheat oven to fan 160°C, conventional 180°C, Gas Mark 4.
- Melt the butter in a pan. Place the biscuits in a polythene bag and crush with a rolling pin, then add to the melted butter.
- Press the mixture evenly into a 23cm flan tin, bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Prepare the filling whilst the flan tin is in the oven.
- In a bowl, beat together the eggs, add condensed milk, and zest and juice of the oranges and lemon.
- Pour the filling onto the biscuit base after the 15-minute bake, then bake for a further 20-25 minutes or until the filling is firm.
- When cool, decorate with orange segments and serve with crème fraîche.
- Try replacing the zest and juice of the oranges with lime to create a Key Lime pie.
- For another alternative, replace digestive biscuits with ginger nuts.
