Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Additional powdered sugar, for dusting

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and white sugar until well combined.
  3. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
  4. Add the flour and salt to the bowl and whisk until smooth.
  5. Slowly mix in the milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until the batter is well blended.
  6. Pour the batter into the greased pie dish and smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
  8. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
  9. Once cooled, sprinkle powdered sugar over the top of the pie for an extra touch of sweetness.
  10. Slice and serve the Lemon Impossible Pie chilled. Enjoy!
