Tart and Tasty Lemon Pie

I am not a pie person… I know, how can someone live in this great nation of ours and not love pie??  Or even like it a little? The saying goes; “As American as apple pie”… There are plenty of other pies that you see represented too, cherry pie, rhubarb pie, banana cream pie. But I feel like Lemon Pie gets overlooked, and you know what? It’s my favorite!

It’s probably my favorite because by great grandma would make it and let me lick the spoons. It’s probably how my love of tart flavors came about too!

To me, there is just something about homemade lemon pie…

RECIPE

Tips

  • Heat egg yolks slowly to avoid getting scrambled eggs!
  • You can push the pie filling mixture through a strainer if you are worried about lumps
  • You can pipe the meringue for a more polished look, just make sure there are peaks!
