Description
This lemon strawberry pie is perfect for summer gatherings with its refreshing flavors and easy preparation.
Ingredients
- Fresh Strawberries: 1 to 1.5 cups, sliced.
- Lemon Juice: 1/4 cup, fresh.
- Sugar: 3/4 cup, granulated.
- Eggs: 3 large.
- Butter: 1/4 cup, melted.
- Pie Crust: 1 pre-baked pie crust.
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, eggs, and fresh lemon juice. Use a whisk or an electric mixer to blend these ingredients until smooth and well incorporated. Once everything is nicely combined, pour in the melted butter and mix until the filling is creamy and free of lumps.
- Place your pre-baked pie crust on a baking sheet to catch any potential drips during the baking process.
- Carefully pour the lemon filling mixture into your prepared pie crust. Use a spatula to spread it evenly.
- Transfer the baking sheet with the pie into your preheated oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the filling is set and lightly golden around the edges.
- Once the pie is baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool completely at room temperature. When it has cooled, arrange the fresh, sliced strawberries on top in a decorative layer.
- For the best tasting experience, chill the pie in the refrigerator for a short while before serving. Slice into pieces and enjoy!
Notes
Chill the pie prior to serving to enhance the refreshing flavors.
