Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.75 cups Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 4 large Egg yolks
- 1 cup Whipped cream, for garnish
- 1 optional Lemon slices, for garnish
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie dish, ensuring an even layer across the bottom and up the sides. Use a flat-bottomed glass or measuring cup to press it down tightly.
Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and egg yolks until smooth and well combined.
Pour the lemon filling into the cooled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until set. For best results, let it chill overnight.
Before serving, top the pie with whipped cream and garnish with lemon slices if desired.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
