Baby Lemon Impossible Pies

Ingredients You’ll Need

Makes 12 mini pies

For the Pies:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 3 large eggs , beaten
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 1–2 lemons)
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest (from about 2 lemons)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Optional Garnish:

  • Powdered sugar, whipped cream, or fresh berries

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) . Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners for easy removal.

Step 2: Mix the Batter

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
  2. Add the melted butter, beaten eggs, milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and fully combined. The batter will be thin—that’s okay!

Step 3: Fill the Muffin Tin

  1. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.

Step 4: Bake

  1. Bake for 20–25 minutes , or until the pies are golden brown on top and set in the center. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  2. Let the pies cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

  1. Dust with powdered sugar or top with whipped cream and fresh berries before serving.
