Lemon Icebox Pie

Image
    Print Recipe     Lemon Icebox Pie Here’s a little tip – the more orange the egg yolks are, the more yellow the pie filling will be. I used pastured, organic egg yolks in the filling and that’s what makes it so yellow. Isn’t that fun?! I’m giving both dairy and dairy-free options in this recipe. You can choose which option you prefer. Serves 8 For the crust: 1/2 recipe of  homemade graham crackers  OR you can do a nut crust 4 tablespoons  coconut oil , melted For the Filling: 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk or for a Paleo/Dairy-Free option –  1 recipe of dairy-free sweetened condensed milk 1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice 3 pastured egg yolks For the Whipped Cream: 1 cup heavy cream or coconut cream, whipped Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and adjust the rack to the middle position. Oil a  9-inch pie plate . Place the graham crackers in the bowl of a f ood processor  and process until finely ground. Add the coconut oil and process until th
