Lemon pie is a zesty dessert rooted in Western cuisine, often associated with classic American baking. Its filling is typically made from a blend of fresh lemon juice, eggs, sugar, and butter, creating a bright, tangy flavor complemented by a buttery or crumbly crust. Some versions feature a meringue topping made from whipped egg whites and sugar, adding a fluffy, sweet finish. While lemon pie contains vitamin C from the lemon juice and protein from the eggs, it is also high in sugar and fats, making it a treat best enjoyed in moderation. The richness of the crust and the addition of butter contribute to its indulgent nature, while the refreshing citrus makes it a lighter alternative to heavier desserts. Popular in picnics, holidays, and summer gatherings, lemon pie balances sweet and tangy notes for a delightful dessert experience.
