A friend of mine gave me some Meyer emons and I wanted to something special with them. I found this recipe for a Lemon Sour Cream Pie on Mary’s Blog and fell in love with it. It’s easy, it’s delicious, and it’s LEMON!
You can make this as a pie, but I choose a tart pan. It can be made really easy if use a store bought pie crust, or you can make your own. Next time I would like to make it with a buttery sweet tart dough crust.
The filling is creamy, smooth as silk, and as easy as pie!
Pure Deliciousness!

It reminds me of Marie Calender’s Sour Cream Lemon pie, but I’m sure yours is much better. Sunshine on a plate!
