Lately I’ve been doing a lot of raspberry this and blueberry that and strawberry this and that. I’ve been stuck on things containing fruits that end in “berry”. To stretch my recipe-creating mind but still keep the summer theme, I decided I need some lemon in my life. You may have seen my mini citrus haul on Instagram. Even though lemon is technically in season in the winter, it somehow screams summertime.
I mean you don’t drink lemonade in the winter do you? Good, didn’t think so. On to PIE…
You know what would be perfect right here? A delightful tale of how I had a lemonade stand when I was 7 and made so much money off of selling sweet summer sips because with my adorable face they couldn’t resist buying aglass. But that didn’t happen, so we’ll just skip that part.
But if I started selling lemonade pies I’d make millions!Strawberry lemonade pies? Billions! Because this Strawberry Lemonade Cream Pie is sweet-tangy perfection, and the lemonade pie market is wide open. Not to mention this little pie is quite eye-catching, so among other pies it would makea bold and swirly statement.

Yippee, I’m loving lemon things right now! I seriously think the close proximity of Florida has messed with our brains, because we are so often making similar things around the same time 🙂

I couldn’t decide between raspberry lemonade and strawberry lemonade, both so good, but strawberries won out in the end because they were on sale hahaha 😀 I need a list like that 🙂 Thank Sophia!

Well lemonade is like my favorite fruit drink ever, and citrusy pies are so good, so it just kinda happened 🙂 And there’s something about swirling things together that just makes desserts look so dreamy! I would add some sort of swirl element to everything I make if I could find away lol 🙂 Thanks Kat!

Yeah, totally a perfect little BBQ or potluck pie! And you could definitely make it bigger by doubling the recipe so it serves more than like 2 people 🙂 haha

Thank you Ceara! I love photoshoots that involve lots of fresh fruits, they are so naturally colorful and vibrant it doesn’t take a lot of work to make them pop 🙂

Fruits that end in berry are the best kind of fruits!! These look so pretty! I don’t drink lemonade all that often, but come to think of it I should drink it more because I really like it! This looks like the perfect summer dessert 🙂

I’m the same way! I love lemonade but I rarely drink it! haha It’s the right time of year, so we both need to start drinking it more often 🙂 Thanks Izzy!

DO you know the measurements to make this as a larger normal sized pie? Thanks!

I haven’t test it so I do not know exactly, but based on my experience with other pie recipes you would need increase the crust ingredients by 1.5 and double the filling ingredients. You might have a little extra filling this way, but that’s better than not enough. And it will probably need to bake for closer to 40-45 mins.
So an approximate recipe would be:
2 ripe bananas
1 cup non-dairy milk
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup evaporated cane juice (I did not use coconut sugar for color purposes, but you can substitute if you wish)
2 tsps lemon zest
2 tbsps cornstarch
8-10 strawberries
CRUST
1 1/2 cup quick oats (or rolled oats pulsed in the blender)
1/4 cup + 1/2 tbsp water
3 tbsp coconut sugarHope that helps!

Natalie can you clarify for me. I can use coconut sugar instead of cane juice, it will just not be as yellow colored when finished right?
Reply
Natalie says
Yep you got it Leah, the coconut sugar will just make the filling much darker brown in color. Still tastes delish!
