How to Make Raspberry Lemon Pie
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup cornstarch.
- Gradually whisk in 2 cups whole milk until smooth. Whisk in 4 large egg yolks.
- Add 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter and the zest of 2 lemons.
- Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle simmer (about 8-10 minutes).
- Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes more, stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice. Strain the curd through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.
- Pour the lemon curd into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming, and refrigerate until completely cool.
- Once cool, gently fold in 1 cup sour cream.
- Pour the lemon curd mixture carefully into the prepared 9-inch pastry shell.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set.
- Just before serving, artfully arrange 1 cup fresh raspberries on top of the pie. Get creative with your arrangement!
