Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for crust)
- 1.5 cups Fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 3 large Egg yolks
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.5 cups Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 1 cup Whipped cream (for topping)
- 4 whole Fresh strawberries (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar for the crust until evenly combined.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, then let it cool completely on a wire rack.
In a blender or food processor, puree the sliced strawberries until smooth. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks until slightly thickened. Gradually whisk in the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth.
Gently fold in the strawberry puree to create a uniform mixture.
Pour the filling into the cooled crust and spread evenly.
Bake the pie in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until fully chilled.
Before serving, top the pie with whipped cream and garnish with whole fresh strawberries.
Slice and enjoy your Lemon Strawberry Pie!
