Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish. In a bowl, combine all crust ingredients, mix until well incorporated.
Use the bottom of a glass to press the graham cracker mixture onto the pie dish, then press the edges. Bake for 10 minutes. Set aside.
In a bowl, add the egg yolks, mix until smooth. Add condensed milk, sour cream, lime juice, lime zest, and salt. Mix in medium-high for 2 minutes or until smooth.
Pour the filling in the pre-baked graham crust, smooth the top. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the sides start bubbling. It's ok if it's a little wobbly, cool for 2 hours before serving. Serve with whipped cream or garnish with lime zest.
