A frozen, tangy-smooth lemonade pie with a crunchy graham cracker crust, perfect for summer. This creamy pie balances tart lemon flavor with a light, fluffy texture and a crisp crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 10 full sheets, finely crushed)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4–5 medium lemons)
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and salt. Add melted butter and stir until crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
  2. Press the crust mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie dish, especially around the edges. Bake for 8-10 minutes until set and golden. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, fresh lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth and glossy.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat cold heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
  5. Gently fold about one-third of the whipped cream into the lemon mixture to lighten it, then fold in the remaining whipped cream carefully to keep the filling light and creamy.
  6. Pour the filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight until firm but scoopable.
  7. Remove the pie from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving to soften slightly. Slice with a warm knife dipped in hot water and dried for clean cuts.

Notes

Use fresh lemon juice for best flavor. Do not overwhip the cream to avoid grainy texture. Bake and cool the crust completely to prevent sogginess. Fold whipped cream gently to keep filling airy. Warm knife before slicing for clean cuts. Freeze at least 4 hours or overnight for best texture.
