How to Make Lemon Cake Pie
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, and lemon zest until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, and salt.
- Gradually add the milk to the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth.
- Stir in the melted butter until fully incorporated.
- In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the lemon mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pie crust.
- Bake for 10 minutes at 400°F (200°C).
- Reduce the oven temperature to 275°F (135°C) and continue baking for 65-75 minutes, or until the pie is golden brown and only slightly jiggly in the center. A toothpick inserted near the center should come out with moist crumbs attached.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
