Delicious and very easy ~ tangy, but plenty sweet! My lemons were medium sized and next time I'll use 2 whole lemons! I made this pie with 1 1/2 lemons, 6 eggs, 2 1/4 cups sugar, and 3/4 cup butter (for 7.5 servings) and baked the mixture in a 10-inch quiche dish for 55 minutes at 350F.

Looked forward to making this, we love lemon desserts and the recipe reminded me of a Shaker sliced lemon pie which I enjoy. And it's so easy. Used a large lemon and it was just too much, the flavor of the pie was dominated by that bitter off-taste from the white pith. We ended up tossing the pie. Even though it's more troublesome, next time I'd remove the white pith before blending the ingredients.

Delicious and easy peasy! Appreciate the technique. Had this at our neighbor's who has tons of lemons on their tree, and asked for her recipe as we really enjoyed it and here it is! She served hers with some homemade whipped cream as it did not quite fill up the pie shell. Thank you for sharing.

Lovely dessert. I used a large lemon and it was a bit tart. Smaller lemons should do it, though. I'm trying this with an orange and lemon now and think it might be good topped with whipped eggwhite as well. Thanks a lot - definitely a keeper.

Had this at a recent birthday luncheon and I had to have the recipe! Found the same one here on 'zaar, of course! It is delicious and loved by all I have made it for so far! It is a great alternative (and a lot easier to make!) to lemon meringue pie, I personally like it a lot better than a meringue. In fact I think I will make it tonight! Don't forget to have some nice whipped cream on hand to really top this one off nicely. Thanks for shaing!
