My friend Minnie gave me a copy of the Holiday Cooking 2005 from the Harvey County Independent, a paper that serves her hometown. I saw this recipe in there and I had to try it. It was so good! It was so tart! It mellowed a little over the next few days, but it was still so good.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups sugar
5 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter
3 eggs
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 medium lemons, peeled, sliced, and deseeded
1 cup water
2 unbaked pie crusts
Directions:
1. Combine sugar, flour, and salt.
2. Cream in the butter.
3. Beat in the eggs one at a time until mixture is smooth.
4. Add lemon zest, lemon slices, and water.
5. Pour into unbaked pie crust and cover with a top crust.
6. Bake at 400 degrees F for about 35 minutes, until crust is golden brown.
7. Let cool.
