Lemon-filled pie

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make a pie with lemon filling? To begin, knead the dough. Prepare the necessary ingredients. Be sure to sift the flour to saturate it with oxygen. Butter should be cold from the refrigerator. Scald the lemon with boiling water and use a fine grater to remove the zest from it, without affecting the white part, otherwise it will be bitter.

2. Step 2:

   

   Grate cold butter into flour on a coarse grater. Quickly chop with a knife or rub into crumbs with your hands.

3. Step 3:

   

   Squeeze the juice out of half a lemon and pour it into the dough. Beat in one egg.

4. Step 4:

   

   Knead the dough. If necessary, add a tablespoon of cold water. The dough should be soft, slightly sticky to the hands. Transfer the dough to the mold (there is no need to lubricate it with anything). Spread your hands along the bottom, forming the sides. Send the mold with the base to the refrigerator for 15 minutes. Next, lay the parchment in the base, pour the load, for example, peas or beans. Bake in a preheated 200C oven for about 10-15 minutes. Remove the load and bake for another 5 minutes.

5. Step 5:

   

   While the sand basket is baking (check it so that it does not burn, focusing on your oven), prepare the filling. Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Wash the lemons and scald them with boiling water. Take the chicken eggs out of the refrigerator in advance, they should be at room temperature.

6. Step 6:

   

   Grate the lemon zest on a fine grater, without affecting the white part.

7. Step 7:

   

   In a container, mix the sugar and lemon zest. Leave it on for 15 minutes.

9. Step 8:

   

   Squeeze out the juice from the lemons (the amount of juice came out almost a full glass).

10. Step 9:

    

    Add flour to the mixture of sugar and zest, mix. Pour in the lemon juice and mix again.

11. Step 10:

    

    Beat in the eggs, whisk with a whisk or fork until smooth.

12. Step 11:

    

    Leave the lemon-egg filling for 15 minutes so that the sugar dissolves.

13. Step 12:

    

    Pour the lemon filling into the finished sand base. Bake at 160 degrees for about 30 minutes. The baking time may vary, since everyone's ovens are baked differently.

14. Step 13:

    

    Remove the finished pie from the oven and cool completely, and only then carefully remove it from the mold onto a dish. Serve lemon pie with tea. Very tasty!
