ingredients

2 cups milk
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup Bisquick baking mix
1/4 cup butter, melted and cooled to room temperature
4 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 10-inch pie plate.

Combine the milk, sugar, baking mix, butter, eggs, vanilla, and lemon juice in a blender. Cover and process on high speed for 15 seconds until smooth.

Pour the lemon filling into the prepared pie plate. Place in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 50-55 minutes or until set in the middle and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 minutes before slicing. Store leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator. Can be served warm or chilled.

recipe tips


For a more intense lemon flavor, add lemon zest to the filling mixture.

Try different extracts like almond or coconut.

To prevent over-browning, cover the pie with foil halfway through baking if necessary.

If you prefer a sweeter pie, you can increase the amount of sugar in the recipe as desired.

To make individual servings, pour the filling into muffin tins lined with cupcake liners and adjust the baking time accordingly.
