Recipe Categories : Southwestern : Sliced Lemon Pie

This is what the Old West bakers adapted from an old Shaker recipe from Ohio. This is a quite tart dessert.

5 large lemons
2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
6 eggs, beaten

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Skin and remove all white from lemons. Slice thin, remove seeds, and mix with sugar and salt. Let stand for at least 2 hours.

Add beaten eggs to lemons and mix very well. Pour into a prepared 8-inch pie crust. Cover with top crust and bake for 45 to 55 minutes.

Cool on a wire rack. This texture will be considerably coarser than a modern lemon pie.

Cool in the refrigerator and serve in small slices.
