Arizona Sunshine Blender Lemon Pie

 

Az Sunshine Lemon Pie--Slice-resized

This deliciously simple 5-ingredient pie will be your savior this holiday season! Use fresh Arizona lemon, eggs, butter and whipped cream to make this dish a local favorite. This unique recipe also utilizes an entire lemon, peel and all! Lemon peels contain calcium, potassium, vitamin C and fiber.

Ingredients:

1 large lemon, cleaned well

4 large Arizona eggs

1 stick (8 Tbsp) melted butter

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups sugar

1 (8-9 inch) pie crust (or make your own)

Whipped cream for topping

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sprinkle a little sugar over the pie crust and bake until light golden brown, about 15 minutes. (Poke with toothpick or fork if it bubbles during baking process.)
  2. Cut lemon in chunks, leaving rind on. Remove seeds.
  3. In a blender or food processor, blend together cut lemon, eggs, butter, vanilla and sugar until mixture is smooth and creamy, and fairly runny. Pour into baked pie crust.
  4. Bake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes. If crust becomes too brown, cover gently with foil and finish baking.
  5. Let set up for about an hour, then refrigerate to chill for a few hours or overnight.
  6. Garnish with fresh whipped cream and lemon pieces, as desired.

    • It’s definitely possible, though it might require some playing around. Removing the rind and adjusting the amount of sugar should be a good place to start! We haven’t tried it with oranges, but please let us know if you do!
