Ingredients
Lemons
You’ll need about 2 medium lemons for their juice and zest. Freshly squeezed lemon juice adds vibrant flavor to the filling while the zest enhances the aroma and taste.
Eggs
Four large eggs are required for this recipe. Eggs act as binding agents in the filling, helping to create that impossibly smooth texture everyone loves.
Sugar
Use one cup of granulated sugar. This sweetness balances the tartness of the lemons perfectly, making each bite a delightful experience.
Milk
You will need one cup of whole milk. Milk adds creaminess to the filling and helps achieve the right consistency without being too heavy.
Flour
Incorporate one-third cup of all-purpose flour into the mixture. This ingredient thickens the filling while allowing it to set properly during baking.
Butter
Melted butter is essential; use one-quarter cup. It enriches the flavor of the pie and contributes to its wonderfully light texture.
Vanilla Extract
One teaspoon of pure vanilla extract enhances overall flavor with its aromatic qualities. It pairs beautifully with lemon, adding depth to every bite.
