⬇️ Lemon Raspberry Pie 😋⬇️
Indulge in this delightful Lemon Raspberry Pie, a perfect blend of fruity and tangy flavors that will brighten up any gathering! 🍋🍇
Ingredients:
1 pre-made pie crust (9-inch)
1 cup fresh raspberries (or frozen, thawed)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 4 lemons)
2 teaspoons lemon zest
3 large eggs
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon salt
Whipped cream or fresh mint (for decoration)
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Fit the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Take it out and let it cool slightly.
In a medium saucepan, mix raspberries, cornstarch, and ½ cup of sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and the raspberries soften into a sauce, roughly 5 minutes.
Once thickened, take the saucepan off the heat and let it cool.
In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining ½ cup of sugar, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, eggs, butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Pour this mixture into the saucepan with the raspberry sauce, stirring well to blend.
Put the saucepan back on medium heat and cook the filling while stirring constantly for about 5-7 minutes, until it’s thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Once thickened, remove from heat and carefully pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust.
Let the pie cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours to firm up.
Before serving, add a touch of whipped cream or fresh mint for garnish, if desired.
Enjoy this refreshing and mouthwatering dessert! 🍰🌿
