Lemon Chess Pie Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Whisk together the sugar, cornmeal, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the eggs and egg yolk and whisk well.
  • Whisk in the milk, melted butter, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and lemon extract if using.
  • Then slowly pour the filling into the cooled pie shell.
  • Bake the pie on the center oven rack for about 45 to 50 minutes, turning it 180 degrees halfway through.
  • When done, the top will be dark golden brown, and the filling will be set except for the very center, which may jiggle slightly when you tap the pan.
  • Cool the pie on a wire rack.
  • Serve it at room temperature or cover and chill until serving time. Makes 8 to 10 servings.
