Description

Baby Lemon Impossible Pies are irresistibly easy and bursting with bright lemon flavor. These mini custard-style pies magically form their own crust while baking, delivering a creamy center with a lightly golden edge. Perfect for springtime gatherings, baby showers, or a light dessert, they require no pie crust—just blend, bake, and enjoy!

Ingredients

Scale

Essential Ingredients:

1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled

Optional Add-Ons:

Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Lemon zest (for extra brightness)
Whipped cream (for serving)
Fresh berries (raspberries, blueberries, or strawberries)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
In a blender, combine sugar, lemon juice, eggs, milk, flour, baking powder, and melted butter. Blend until smooth and well combined, about 30 seconds.
Pour the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake for 22–25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set. The pies will puff up during baking and settle as they cool.
Let cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with lemon zest or berries before serving, if desired.

Notes

You can prepare the batter ahead and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking.
These pies can be served warm, room temperature, or chilled—each offering a slightly different texture.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
