We love a good citrus dessert at our house!
My mom makes this pie quite often and it’s a favorite among our extended family to take for potlucks and gatherings. Many of us here in Arizona have lemon trees, me included, and this is a perfect way to use up a lemon if you ask me!
I also have a key lime tree and bake this delicious key lime pie once in a while too!
Yes, you can use the whole ripe lemon in blender lemon pie!
The beauty of this popular idea is that you can throw a whole ripe lemon in this pie and blend it in with the eggs, butter, and sugar. I have done this many times. If you have a Meyer lemon, even better as those tend to not have a bitter pith, referring to the outer white portion of the lemon.
If you are worried about your pie being bitter, maybe consider first zesting your lemon into the blender, cutting away the white pith a bit, and then proceeding. You do you boo!

Helpful tips for making blender lemon pie:
- This is written as a blender pie, but I am sure a food processor would work well too if that’s what you have on hand.
- I am thinking a lime version would be tasty too! Maybe use a couple of limes since they are smaller in size.
- If you notice your pie crust browning too much, cover the outer edges with a little foil. Have you seen these reusable silicone pie crust shields!? So smart!
- After serving, cover your pie with plastic wrap or scoop it into a covered container and it should last in the fridge for up to a few days.
- Readers in the onlinements have stated they have successfully substituted their favorite granulated sugar alternative for making this pie. This could be something to consider if desired!
The pie filling on this desert is insanely GOOD.
This tastes like a fancy custard pie but is honestly super low effort to pull off. If you like fresh homemade lemon bars then you’ll love this yummy, convenient dessert too! Enjoy.
