Ingredients
- 1 Ready-to-Bake Pie Crust that fits a 9-inch pie pan
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter room temperature
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 Tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 Tablespoon cornmeal
- 5 large eggs at room temperature
- 1 cup 2% milk at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- powdered sugar for garnish
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Lightly grease pie plate with non-stick spray
- Unroll a ready-to-bake pie crust and lay it onto a pie plate
- Crimp the edges around the pie plate, tucking under extra crust to create a uniform look.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the butter and sugar and cream together.
- Next, add the flour and cornmeal to the sugar mixture.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well between each.
- Once the batter is smooth and well mixed, add the milk, vanilla extract and lemon juice and combine.
- Pour the batter into the unbaked pie shell.
- Bake the pie at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes. After this time, use foil to lightly cover the entire pie.
- Bake again for another 15-25 minutes or until the center is no longer jiggly.
- Remove the pie to cool.
- Allow the pie to cool thoroughly before slicing. Dust with powdered sugar or add a dollop of whipped cream before serving.
- It’s best to keep covered and stored in the refrigerator.
