Sour Orange Pie-Cook's Country image

Cook's Country made a comparable substitute for the tart juice by combining lemon juice and orange juice concentrate. If sour oranges are available, use 3/4 cup of strained sour orange juice in place of the lemon juice and orange juice concentrate. Note: prep time includes various steps, including cook time for the crust.

Time 1h17m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

5 ounces animal cracker cookies (about 60-80 animal cracker cookies)
3 tablespoons sugar
1 pinch salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
6 tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed (Minute Maid Original Frozen)
4 large egg yolks
6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about 2 large lemons)
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest (yellow part only)
1 teaspoon grated orange zest (orange part only)
1 pinch salt
3/4 cup heavy cream, chilled
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest (orange part only)

Steps:

  • For the Crust: Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 325 degrees. Process crackers, sugar and salt in food processor until finely ground, about 30 seconds. Add melted butter (easily melted in the microwave) and pulse until combined, about 8-9 pulses. Transfer crumbs to 9-inch pie plate.
  • Using bottom of dry measuring cup or glass bottom, press crumbs firmly into bottom and up sides of pie plate. Bake crust until fragrant and beginning to brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • For the Filling: Whisk all ingredients in bowl until fully combined. Pour filling into cooled crust.
  • Bake pie until center jiggles slightly when shaken, 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool completely. Refrigerate until fully chilled, at least 3 hours or cover with greased plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
  • For the Whipped Cream: Whisk cream, sugar and orange zest in medium bowl until stiff peaks form, 2 to 4 minutes. Slice chilled pie and serve with whipped cream.
