Olive Oil + Meyer Lemon Blender Pie

Dec 25, 2019 ·

This Meyer lemon pie is made with whole lemons in the blender, and with olive oil! Enjoy it during citrus season. This recipe for a blender lemon pie is understated and elegant. Use Meyer Lemons because they have a less-bitter rind.

What makes this blender lemon pie so great

The Meyer lemon is more yellow and rounder than a typical supermarket lemon. Its skin is fragrant and thin, with less pith than a typical supermarket lemon, too. Meyer lemon fruits have a sweeter, less acidic flavor and the skin can turn almost orange when it is ripe.

This recipe still is a little bit bitter, because it uses a whole lemon, so don't make it if you have a high bitter aversion in your tastebuds. (You know it if you do.)

How to make a blender lemon pie, step by step

  1. Make the pie crust 1 hour in advance. In a large bowl, combine the flour and cubed butter. Work with your fingers to combine the butter and flour - smush the butter and flour together between your thumb and forefinger until the butter is broken down a bit. Fluff and toss every once and while to ensure everything is distributing, and begin to work in the ice water. Knead a few times to bring it all together, then form it into a ball, pat down into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and place in the fridge for 1 hour.
  2. Blind bake the pie. Preheat the oven to 350F. Roll out the pie dough about ¼ inch thick and 12" in diameter, and place into a deep-dish pie pan. trim and crimp edges. fill with pie weights and blind bake for 20 minutes, then remove from the oven and let it cool down.
  3. Prepare filling and bake. In a blender, combine eggs, lemons, butter, and olive oil and sugar, and blend to combine. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust and bake for 40-45 minutes at 350F. Remove from the oven and let it cool before serving.
