Ingredients for Low Calorie Lemon Chiffon Pie

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • Unsweetened Pineapple Juice
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed is best!)
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Cool Whip Lite

How to Make Low Calorie Lemon Chiffon Pie

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 1/4 cup of the pineapple juice until smooth. Set aside.
  2. In the same saucepan, combine the remaining 3/4 cup pineapple juice and 1/4 cup honey. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
  3. Gradually whisk in the cornstarch mixture until the mixture thickens and becomes translucent. Reduce heat to low.
  4. Add 1/2 cup lemon juice and the zest of 1 lemon. Stir until well combined.
  5. Continue to cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until the filling is smooth and thickened.
  6. Remove from heat and let the filling cool completely. Stir occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
  7. Once completely cool, gently fold in 4 ounces of the Cool Whip until just combined.
  8. Pour the lemon filling into the prepared pie crust.
  9. Top with the remaining 4 ounces of Cool Whip.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to set completely before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
