Easy Lemon Raspberry Pie

Ahhhhh, this recipe for Easy Lemon Raspberry Pie is the perfect spring or summer dessert!

I guess it could be served anytime, as mine was made mid-winter hoping it would bring a little ray of sunshine at least to my kitchen and my soul.

Only simple dessert recipes are made around here, and this one even uses a store bought pie crust to deliver on the “easy” promise.

Most store bought crusts are 6 ounces, but it’s very important that you use a 9 ounce, 10 inch crust so all the filling fits.

ingredients for the pie

How to make Easy Lemon Raspberry Pie

First put a pint of fresh raspberries (12 ounces) in a bowl, but save a few to garnish the top of the pie.

Add two tablespoons of sugar and let this sit for a few minutes, which will help break the raspberries down.

Then zest a lemon for about a tablespoon of lemon zest, and squeeze even more fresh lemons to get a cup of lemon juice.

Add some whipped cream and fresh raspberries to top your Easy Lemon Raspberry Pie if desired 🙂

I used regular whipped topping, so if you use that serve right away because it will deflate as it sits.
