📝 Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups gluten-free graham cracker crumbs (I use one 5.6oz box of Schar graham crackers)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon gluten-free flour
- 4 tablespoons butter melted and slightly cooled
- 2 14 ounce cans sweetened condensed milk
- 4 egg yolks
- 3/4 cup fresh lemon juice (juice of 4-5 lemons)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1--- MAKE THE CRUST: ---
- 2Blend graham crackers in a food processor until they turn into crumbs. Pour the graham cracker crumbs into a large mixing bowl.
- 3Preheat the oven to 350°F. Combine the gluten-free graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar and flour in a mixing bowl and mix until well combined. Add the melted butter and stir until fully combined and all of the crumbs are moistened.
- 4Press the crumbs firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9 x 1.5-inch pie pan. (Tip: Do the sides first!)
- 5Bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes. Remove the crust from the oven and set aside to cool for 10 minutes while you make the filling.
- 6Cool for at least 10 minutes before filling.
- 7--- MAKE THE FILLING: ---
- 8In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the sweetened condensed milk, egg yolks, lemon juice and salt. Mix on medium speed for 3-4 minutes.
- 9Pour the lemon filling into the prepared crust. Bake at 350F for 10 minutes until the center is set.
- 10Cool the pie on a wire rack for 1 hour. Place in the refrigerator until set, at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
- 11--- MAKE THE TOPPING: ---
- 12When you want to serve the pie, make the whipped cream topping. In a medium bowl, add the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer, whip on high speed until fluffy and the cream forms soft peaks.
- 13Spread the whipped cream over the chilled pie. Garnish with lemon slices if desired. Slice and enjoy!
