Lemon Shaker Pie

List of Ingredients





2 large lemons
2 cup sugar
4 large eggs
pastry bottom and top crusts for 9" pie




Recipe



This pie comes from the Shaker communities of Ohio. The secret to making this
pies is to cut the lemon slices as thin as possible. They should be very close
to paper thin. Some versions of this recipe call for just the insides of the
lemon.
Slice the lemons paper thin. Cover the slices with sugar. Let stand all day (for about 12 hours) stirring occasionally. Roll pastry into the bottom crust of a 9"
pie. Roll our the top layer. Beat eggs lightly and stir into the lemons until
they are thoroughly mixed. Turn in to the pie shell. Cover with the top crust.
Cut air vents. Bake at 450 degrees for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake
another 30 minutes or until the crust is golden.
