The Holidays are when we cook and bake a lot around our home. I love the smell of all the flavors flowing through our home. But, I need to admit my favorite part of Thanksgiving is the array of desserts. Especially the pie-I love seeing a sea of pies. Most of all… my Lemon Cream Pie With Raspberries Recipe.
This has got to be one of my all-time faves:
{Meegan’s Lemon Cream Pie With Raspberries Recipe}
My Pie Crust Recipe
2 C flour
1 C shortening
Mix with a pastry blender, and add 1 tsp salt.
Combine and add flour mixture with:
1/3 C milk
1 T vinegar
Roll dough on floured surface.
After laying crust in pie tin, poke crust with a fork all around the bottom and sides.
Makes 2 -10 inch pie crusts.
Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes, until light brown and crisp.
4 egg yolks
1/3 C cornstarch
1 1/2 C water
1 C sugar
1/4 tsp salt
3 T butter
1/2 C fresh lemon juice
1 T lemon zest
In a 2 quart sauce pan whisk together sugar and cornstarch. Cooking over a medium low heat, gradually stir in water until smooth. Stirring constantly with a whisk, until mixture is “clear”. Stir in egg yolks, one at a time. Still stirring, boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice, butter, and zest. Pour into a cooled pie crust. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.

Whipped Cream
Pour 1 pint whipping cream into cold mixing bowl.
Add 1/4 C powered sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Whip with beater until thick and light.
Spread over pie evenly.
Place fresh raspberries all over pie, so that each slice has a raspberry in every bite.
I hope you take the time to make Lemon Cream Pie With Raspberries Recipe for your family and friends sometime soon.
You won’t be sorry-I promise.
Make it a wonderful day.
