Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Optional

  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or small pie dishes thoroughly to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl or blender, combine the milk, flour, sugar, melted butter, eggs, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend or whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined to create the batter.
  3. Fill Pans: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin cups or individual pie dishes, filling each about three-quarters full to allow room for rising.
  4. Bake: Place the filled pans in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the pies are golden around the edges and the centers are set with no jiggling when gently shaken.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the pies from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Optionally, dust the tops with powdered sugar before serving for a lovely finishing touch. Enjoy your individual lemon pies warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Ensure the muffin tin or pie dishes are well greased to allow easy removal of the pies.
  • Use fresh lemon juice and zest for the best flavor.
  • These pies can be served warm or chilled depending on preference.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Dusting with powdered sugar is optional but adds a beautiful presentation and extra sweetness.
