I’m a big fan of blender recipes, mainly because cleanup is a breeze. For many of us, tidying up after cooking can be the most tedious part of the process. So, when I found a recipe for Arizona Sunshine Lemon Pie while scrolling through Pinterest, I knew I had to try it—especially since my blog is called Baked in Arizona and I have a passion for all things lemon!
What intrigued me even more was the idea of using the whole lemon, peel and all. This pie is not only delicious but also incredibly easy to make (I opted for a frozen pie crust for convenience). However, if you’re feeling ambitious, making a quick homemade crust is still quite manageable.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 lemon, sliced into wedges (seeds removed)
- 1 1/4 cups sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 frozen pie shell
- Powdered sugar, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, combine the eggs, melted butter, lemon slices, sugar, and vanilla extract. Blend until mostly smooth.
- Fill the Pie Shell: Pour the lemon filling into the frozen pie shell.
- Bake: Place the pie in the oven and bake for about 45 minutes, or until the filling is set.
- Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely. Before serving, dust with powdered sugar.
- Slice and Enjoy: Cut into slices, serve, and relish the zesty goodness!
