Sweet and tart, this Lemon Raspberry Pie recipe is going to be the perfect summer treat for your taste buds.
When I think of summer, all I can think about is all of the amazing fruit that comes into season. Seriously, it just makes my mouth water. From watermelon to strawberries, I just can’t help myself!
Lemon Raspberry Pie Recipe
A particular favorite are raspberries. They’re naturally sweet and tart — just the perfect combination if you ask me.
I’m bringing you a wonderful lemon raspberry pie recipe courtesy of Pillsbury.
Ingredients:
Crust
- 1 Pillsbury refrigerated pie crust (from 14.1-ounce box), softened as directed on box (because a lot of us don’t have time to make a crust from scratch and still want a great tasting crust)
- 1 teaspoon flour
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped pecans
Filling
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons margarine or butter
- 1 egg yolk, beaten

- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
- 1 8-ounce carton frozen whipped topping, thawed

Step 4: Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool completely.
Step 5: In small saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch; blend well.
Step 6: Stir in water, margarine and egg yolk.

Step 9: In small bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar and lemon extract until smooth.
Step 10: Beat in whipped topping at low speed until well blended.
Step 11: Add milk; mix until smooth and of spreading consistency.
Step 12: Spread thin layer of topping mixture around edge of crust.
