Lemon Shaker Pie Recipe by Tasty image

Easy peasy, lemon squeezy! This pie is full of lemon flavor--whole Meyer lemons are sliced and macerated in sugar to soften, then enrobed in a rich filling and baked between two thin, buttery crusts for a pie that is tart, sweet, and sure to put a smile on your face.

Provided by Betsy Carter

Time 6h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 medium meyer lemons
2 cups sugar, divided, plus 1 tablespoon
4 large eggs, beaten
½ stick unsalted butter, melted
3 tablespoons all purpose flour, plus more for dusting
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 pie crust, formed into a disc and chilled
1 large egg yolk
¼ teaspoon water
lemon twist, for serving
powdered sugar, for serving

Steps:

  • Zest and thinly slice the lemons into rounds, removing any seeds.
  • Add the lemon zest and slices and 2 cups (400 g) sugar to a large bowl. Stir to coat the lemon slices well. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and macerate in the refrigerator for 4 hours, or up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Add the beaten eggs, melted butter, flour, and salt to the lemon mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
  • On a lightly floured surface, divide the disc of pie dough in half. Working 1 portion at a time, form into a smaller disc and roll out into a circle about ⅛ inch (3mm) thick. Drape 1 dough round in a 9-inch (23 cm) pie dish. Fill the pie dough with the lemon mixture, then top with the other dough round. Trim any excess dough around the edges, press the edges together and crimp to seal.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and water until fully combined.
  • Brush the top of the pie with the egg wash and sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of sugar. Cut 4 small decorative slits in the center of the pie to vent.
  • Place the pie dish on a rimmed baking sheet and transfer to the oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the crust begins to brown.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (180°C) and bake the pie for 22-24 minutes more, or until the crust is shiny and deep golden brown.
  • Let the pie cool for 45-60 minutes before slicing and serving.
  • Top each slice with a lemon twist and dust with powdered sugar.
  • Enjoy!

SUPER EASY LEMON PIE



Super Easy Lemon Pie image

I don't remember where I got this recipe, but it is my husband's favorite summertime pie. Using reduced fat or fat free items makes this a tasty but low calorie dessert. Cooking time is time to freeze.

Provided by DeniseBC

Categories     Pie

Time 8h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 reduced fat graham cracker crust
12 ounces lemon yogurt (I like to use Stonyfield Farms Lotsa Lemon)
1 (1/3 ounce) package sugar-free lemon gelatin
1 (8 ounce) container Cool Whip Free, defrosted

Steps:

  • Combine yogurt, dry gelatin and Cool Whip mixing well. Spoon into the pie crust. Freeze for several hours or overnight.

Tips:

  • Use fresh lemons: Fresh lemons are key to getting the best flavor in this pie. If you can, use organic lemons to avoid any unwanted pesticides or chemicals.
  • Zest the lemons before juicing them: This will help release the essential oils from the lemon peel, which will give the pie a more intense flavor.
  • Use a food processor to make the crust: This is the easiest way to get a smooth, even crust. If you don't have a food processor, you can also use a pastry blender or even your hands.
  • Blind-bake the crust before filling it: This will help prevent the crust from getting soggy. To blind-bake the crust, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line the pie crust with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will help the filling set and prevent it from becoming runny.

Conclusion:

This easy-peasy lemon squeezy pie is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It's simple to make, delicious, and sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give this pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
