A quick easy pie that's fancy enough for company. This is also good if you make it with lime juice instead of lemon. We like it plain but for company I often top each slice with a spoonfull of cool whip. Time does not include chill time.

Tips:

  • For the perfect graham cracker crust: Use a combination of graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a pie plate. Chill the crust before filling.
  • Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but be sure to use 100% lemon juice, not a lemon-lime blend.
  • Don't overbeat the egg yolks. Overbeating can make the filling tough.
  • Be patient when baking the pie. It may take longer than you think to set. Check the pie regularly and remove it from the oven when it is just set.
  • Chill the pie before serving. This will help the filling to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

This super easy lemon pie is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With a creamy and tangy filling and a flaky graham cracker crust, this pie is sure to be a hit.
