Fern's lemon pie (lightened version below)
8 Servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Whole large lemon , including peel; seeded and chopped | |
| 1 | STICK butter; softened (2 T butter is sufficient) | |
| 1½ | cup | Sugar |
| 4 | Whole eggs | |
Directions
Put all through food processor. Pour into unbaked pie shell and bake at 350 degrees 40 minutes. Serve warm with whipped cream.
My Lightened Version: I replaced the butter with 1Tablespoon Butter Buds (dry) and substitued 1 cup Egg Beaters for the eggs. I find no topping is needed. I usually use a graham cracker crust, but you can use any crust of your choosing. This version of the filling contains only ⅒ grams fat.
Note: If you want to use butter, 2 tablespoons is really enough. When you use a stick of butter, the filling is swimming in butter. Ugh! Recipe By : Fern Ebert
