No time to bake a pie from scratch? Today's busy schedules often keep us from doing things we love, like baking homemade treats for the family. Well, today we've got plenty of shortcuts, like ready-to-bake pie shells, to help us.
What You'll Need
- 2 cup applesauce
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3 eggs
- 3 tablespoon butter, melted
- 2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 1/2 teaspoon all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 nine-inch frozen ready-to-bake deep-dish pie shell, thawed
What to Do
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
-
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except pie shell; mix well. Pour into pie shell and bake 60 to 70 minutes, or until light golden and center is set.
-
Allow to cool, then cover and chill at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
Make sure when you are grating the lemon peel to only grate the yellow part of the peel and not the bitter white pith.
