Lemon Pie

Lemon Pie

I am all about lemon flavored desserts, and in the summer they are just so perfect and refreshing! This Lemon Pie recipe is so simple. You will want to be making it all the time because it is just that easy and delicious.

This recipe is simply a blended mixture of eggs, butter, sugar, and Meyer Lemon juice. We garnish our lemon pie with fresh blueberries and blackberries to make it look pretty and taste even better. Lemon Blueberry desserts always have such a perfect taste!

We recently visited the Italian Market in Philly where we stopped at our favorite bakery, Isgro’s. They have the most delicious biscotti, and in the summer they make an amazing lemon blueberry flavored one! We thought the biscotti paired great with this Lemon Pie! It was the perfect summer Sunday dessert at the beach!
