Ingredients
- 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 0.5 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 3 whole eggs
- 1 cup whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- 3 slices lemon slices (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Step 3
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Use the back of a spoon to smooth it out.
Step 4
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8 minutes, then remove it and let it cool while preparing the filling.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and eggs until smooth and well combined.
Step 6
Pour the lemon mixture into the cooled crust, spreading it out evenly.
Step 7
Bake the pie for 15–17 minutes, or until the filling is set but slightly jiggly in the center.
Step 8
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully chilled.
Step 9
Optional: Top the chilled pie with whipped cream and garnish with lemon slices before serving.
Step 10
Slice and serve your Ez Lemon Pie chilled. Enjoy!
