This pie was a disaster! The custard was runny and the crust was soggy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This pie was a bit too tart for my liking, but I think that's just a personal preference. The custard was smooth and the crust was flaky. I would recommend using less lemon juice next time.
