[Update: HERE is a new easy no bake lemon pie post. Just about the same recipe, but more pictures!]
If your dad (or husband) is a pie guy, try making this easy lemon pie recipe for Father’s Day this year. He will love it! And if you can’t wait until June to try this recipe, make it as dessert on Easter Sunday. : )
Easy Lemon Pie Recipe (No Bake)
Filling:
- 1 can (14 oz) Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 8 oz. Whipped Topping
- About ¾ C. fresh squeezed lemon juice (3 lemons)
- 1 or 2 Tbsp. finely grated lemon peel
Graham Cracker Crust:
- 1 pack graham crackers (finely crushed)
- About ½ C. butter or margarine (melted)
Instructions:
Make the pie crust by mixing the graham cracker crumbs with the butter and shaping them into the pie pan. You may need to sprinkle a little water to help moisten the crumbs to make them stay in place better.
In large bowl, mix sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and lemon peel. Then stir/fold in the whipped topping. Pour filling into pie crust, garnish with lemon slices or powdered sugar, and chill about 1 or 2 hours before eating.
The pie filling also makes a great dip! (you can dip graham crackers, wafers, or fruit).

This pie even tastes better after refrigerating over night. yum.
I think this is my favorite summer-time dessert. It’s perfect!
