Creamy Lemon Pie

This pie is so easy to throw together and tastes delicious and decadent. It's a gteat balance of tart and sweet. The crust is a combination of graham crackers and crushed almonds, but you could just do an all graham cracker crust instead, just add an extra sheet of graham crackers.
You don't want to put on the whipped cream until right before serving...pictured with the whipped cream at the bottom. Recipe adapted from : Sallysbakingaddiction.com

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a food processor, combine the graham crackers, the almonds and the salt and pulse together into fine crumbs. Once that's done, pour the crumbs out into a bowl, add the sugar and melted butter and mix until everything is moistened.

Press the crumb mixture evenly over the bottom and up the sides of a 9"pie dish (9.5" works ok too). Make sure to pack the crumbs tightly. Then place the crust in the oven to pre-bake for 8 minutes. After the 8 minutes are up, remove the pie pan from the oven but don't turn the oven off.
- 3
While the crust is baking, in a medium bowl whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice and egg yolks until combined. Pour the lemon mixture into the pre-baked crust, then place it back into the oven.

Bake for 18-20 minutes, until the center is only slightly jiggly...it should mostly be set. Place the pie on a wire rack and allow it to cool completely. Once it's cool, place it in the fridge to chill for a minimum of 1 hour (and up to 3 days) before serving. Store any leftovers covered in the fridge.

For the whipped cream, simply use a hand mixer or a stand mixer with a whisk attachment to whisk the cream until stiff. Then whisk in the confectioners sugar and the vanilla. Spread the whipped cream all over the top or just place a dollop on top of individual pieces instead.

Refreshing Lemon Pie Refreshing Lemon Pie
(Ok, so it took me two tries to get this pie done!!..The first time was yesterday morning around 11:00ish I forgot to separate the eggs yolks from the eggs whites, but that was because I had just finished a phone call that was quite exciting, and I was so happy that I just forgot!! The second time around was much later in the afternoon, it was going well until I decided that I needed to take the pie out of the baking pan and place it onto a cake stand and it fell apart…:( But it doesn’t matter it still tasted so good!!! ) 🙂We have been having gorgeous weather since Monday and I have been out almost everyday running errands and just going out with my brother. It is very sunny and bright outside, so what came to mind with such beautiful days…a delicious dessert, what sort of dessert you say; well Lemon of course. 🙂 It was hot, hot, hot, yesterday to much for this time of year, but I shouldn’t complain it was lovely, so making this refreshing Lemon Pie was a good idea because when the weather is hot you need to cool off somehow and a cold dessert is just a perfect idea. (I added a scoop of Lemon Sorbet on mine instead of whipped cream) 🙂 Lemon Pie, Pudding, Lemonade, Pink Lemonade are my utmost favorite especially if these are homemade. This Lemon pie (tart) is truly so simple to make, you won’t need more than a few ingredients to blend together and your done.. easy, tasty, refreshing !! 🙂 Foodzesty -
