Best 7 Lemon Pie With Saltine Crust Recipes

NORTH CAROLINA LEMON PIE

Steps:

• Crust: Preheat the oven to 350°. Grease (or spray) a 9" glass pie plate.
• Combine the saltines and salt in a food processor and pulse to coarse crumbs, about 15 pulses. Add the melted butter and corn syrup and pulse about 15 more times, until the crumbs are broken down into oatmeal-sized pieces.
• Pour the saltine mixture into the prepared pie plate. Using the bottom of a dry measuring 1/2 cup, press the crumbs into an even layer on the bottom and sides of the plate, using your fingers to keep the crumbs in as you're pressing the crumbs. Place the pie plate on a baking sheet and bake until light golden brown, 17 minutes. Remove from oven.
• Filling: While the crust bakes, whisk the condensed milk, egg yolks, cream, lemon zest and salt into a medium bowl until fully combined. Whisk in the lemon juice (it will thicken a bit at this point) until fully combined.
• Keep the pie crust on the baking sheet and pour the filling into the crust (crust doesn't need to be cool).
• Bake the pie (still at 350°) until edges are beginning to set but the center still jiggles just a bit when shaken, 15 to 17 minutes. It will firm up a little after it's taken from the oven and cooling. Cool completely on a wire rack, then place in the refrigerator until fully chilled, about 3-4 hours.
• Topping: In a medium bowl (or stand mixer), whisk and whip the cream, sugar, and vanilla on medium-low speed until foamy, about 30 seconds. Increase speed to high and whip until stiff peaks form, 1-2 minutes. Spread a thin layer of whipped cream over the top of the pie. Garnish with thin lemon slices if desired.

ALMOND BUTTER PIE WITH CHOCOLATE SALTINE TOFFEE CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mix together the oil, granulated sugar, crushed saltines and 1/2 cup water in a large bowl. Press into the bottom and all the way up the sides of a 9-inch deep-dish pie dish. Chill for 15 minutes. Bake the crust until golden, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely.
• Meanwhile, microwave the chocolate in a medium microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth, about 2 minutes. Set aside 2 tablespoons in a small bowl.
• Drizzle the crust with the caramel sauce, then the remaining melted chocolate. Refrigerate while you make the filling.
• Whip the cream in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes. Beat the almond butter and cream cheese in a second medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat until smooth. Fold in the whipped cream until just combined.
• Pour the filling into the crust and smooth out the top, taking care not to cover the crust edge. Drizzle the reserved chocolate in a lacy pattern around the edge of the pie and decorate with the sliced almonds. Chill until set, 6 hours and up to overnight.

LEMON PIE WITH SALTINE CRUST

Steps:

• Crush the crackers finely, but not to dust. You can use a food processor or your hands. Add the sugar, then knead in the butter until the crumbs hold together like dough. Press into an 8 inch pie pan. Chill for 15 minutes, then bake for 18 minutes or until the crust colors a little. While the crust is cooling (it doesn't need to be cold), beat the egg yolks into the milk, then beat in the citrus juice. It is important to completely combine these ingredients. Pour into the shell and bake for 16 minutes until the filling has set. The pie needs to be completely cold to be sliced. Serve with fresh whipped cream and a sprinkling of sea salt.

LEMON CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Pulse the saltines, coconut, sugar and salt in a food processor until finely ground. Add the butter and continue to pulse until the crumbs begin to clump together. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate (the crust will be thick). Bake until the crust is browned around the edges and lightly browned on the bottom, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove to a rack and let cool slightly.
• Make the filling: Remove the peel from 1 lemon using a vegetable peeler, removing just the peel and not the pith. Transfer the peel to a food processor. Remove the peel from the other lemon and discard the peel. Cut off the white pith from both lemons; chop the flesh, removing any seeds, and add the flesh to the food processor along with the condensed milk. Puree, scraping down the sides. Add the egg yolks and process until combined. Strain the filling through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing it through with a rubber spatula. Pour over the crust and gently wiggle to distribute the filling. Bake until the filling is set but still slightly wiggly, about 20 minutes. Transfer to the rack and let cool 1 hour, then refrigerate until chilled, at least 3 hours.
• Just before serving, make the topping: Beat the heavy cream and sugar in a bowl with a mixer on medium speed until medium peaks form. Serve with the pie.

ATLANTIC BEACH TART

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place crackers in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add butter and sugar; pulse until combined. Firmly press into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch fluted tart pan with removable bottom. Bake until crust is golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack.
• Meanwhile, whisk together condensed milk and egg yolks until thoroughly combined. Add citrus juice and whisk to combine. Pour filling into tart shell and bake until filling is set, 16 to 18 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack. Refrigerate until well chilled. Serve garnished with whipped cream and a sprinkling of sea salt.

LEMON ZEST PIE CRUST

Steps:

• Sift flour and sugar into a large bowl. Cut in butter until it is in pea-sized pieces.
• Make a "well" in the flour mixture. Pour in water and lemon zest. Carefully fold into the flour mixture until lightly combined.
• Make another "well" and pour in lemon juice; lightly fold into the batter. Repeat with vanilla extract. Add more water if needed to bring the dough together.
• Form dough into 2 separate, equal-sized discs and cover in plastic wrap. Let rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before using.

SALTINE CRACKER PIE CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch pie pan.
• Crush saltine crackers either with your hands in a bowl or with a food processor. Add sugar and salt; mix. Mix in butter, followed by honey. Press crust into the prepared pie pan using a measuring cup.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and set, about 16 minutes. Remove from the oven and while crust is still fairly hot, use the measuring cup to re-form as crust will fall down while baking. Let cool before adding a filling of your choice.
