Time 3h40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

11 (about 160g) full-sheet graham crackers
1/2 cup (62g) salted almonds (I used roasted)
2 Tablespoons (25g) granulated sugar
5 Tablespoons (71g) unsalted butter, melted
2 (14-ounce) cans full-fat sweetened condensed milk
3/4 cup (180ml) fresh lemon juice (about 4 lemons)
4 large egg yolks*
garnish: lemon zest, lemon slices, almonds, whipped cream, or meringue topping

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
  • Using a food processor, pulse the graham crackers and almonds together into crumbs. A few larger pieces of nuts is OK. Pour into a medium bowl and stir in the sugar. Add the melted butter and stir until combined. The mixture will be thick, coarse, and sandy. Try to smash/break up any large chunks. Pour the mixture into an ungreased 9-inch pie dish. With medium pressure using your hand, pat the crumbs down into the bottom and up the sides to make a compact crust. Do not pack down with heavy force because that makes the crust too hard. Simply pat down until the mixture is no longer crumby/crumbly. Tips: You can use a small flat-bottomed measuring cup to help press down the bottom crust and smooth out the surface, but do not pack down too hard. And run a spoon around the bottom "corner" where the edge and bottom meet to help make a rounded crust⁠-this helps prevent the crust from falling apart. For more shaping technique tips, see the graham cracker crust recipe page.
  • Pre-bake crust for 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave the oven on.
  • Whisk the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and egg yolks together. Pour into warm crust.
  • Bake the pie for 19-21 minutes or until only *slightly* jiggly in the center. You want it mostly set. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely on a wire rack. Once cool, cover and chill for at least 1 hour (and up to 3 days) before serving.
  • Garnish as desired. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

WORLD'S BEST LEMON PIE

Mother's pies were always so wonderful, with tender, flaky crusts. Through the year we enjoyed berry and apple pies, but in summer the order of the day was this lemon pie recipe-so light and refreshing! -Phyllis Kirsling, Junction City, Wisconsin
