Joanna Gaines Lemon Pie

Joanna Gaines Lemon Pie recipe is by far one of the best recipes I’ve made to date. I came across it while skimming through the Magnolia magazine last spring, and I instantly knew this was the dessert I was making for Easter dinner. I’m so glad I did because this dish was a hit! It’s light, refreshing and so easy to make. The rustic simplicity of this pie is stunning. There’s something I love about recipes that are simple to make and require only a handful of ingredients. They’re the recipes that come out unbelievably good, and the ones I make over and over again.

I’ve really come to enjoy simple gatherings. In particular every holiday or birthday Lances family, Lance, and I will all gather around the table with either homemade cake or pie to celebrate. Although it’s simple, it’s special and this is one of the reasons I created my blog. I want to provide great recipes with good conversation to you. Like we are all sitting around the table enjoying this pie and chatting together. I hope you love Joanna Gaines’s Lemon Pie just as much as I do!

  1. This is similar to my lemon cream pie except I only use 1 can sweetened condensed milk, six eggs separated and whip the egg whites which I fold in, lemon zest from 4-6 lemons plus all the juice…I actually get two 9” pies from my recipe which is good because it’s popular!

  2. Your recipe calls for a 1/2 cups of sugar added to the crashed graham crackers but in your directions it say 1/3 cup . I’m not sure of the right amount of sugar to use .

    1. U say 2/3 cup of lemon juice. Usually u put 1/2 for 1 8oz. can. 2/3 will not make it taste like lemon. It will taste like the condensed milk. Other than that it’s a good receipe But that will ruin a pie with only 2/3 cup of lemon juice. Please make a change!!!
