Lemon Sour Cream Pie
One bite and people marvel over this pie. Some even say it reminds them of cheesecake. The recipe was shared by a friend; now, I'm glad to do the same.
My husband's a veterinarian—and a good sport about trying mew dishes!

The luscious lemon pie is sure to please!!
Have made this twice & always a BIG hit with my husband. It's a keeper for us!
I had lemon sour cream pie at a local restaurant and came home and googled for a recipe. I found this one. I made this yesterday. It is better than this restaurant that features pies on their menu. Easy to follow directions. Followed it as it!! So good!! Will definitely make this pie again!

This is the best lemon pie I have ever tasted and my family loves it. It is simply delicious.
Excellent flavor and texture for this pie. Everyone at work loved it!! I will definitely be making this pie again.
i rated this recipe excellant but stars went back to 4 and i didn;t notice
i made crust with 1 cup white flour and 1/2 c ground flax seed and 1/2 c of ground bran buds, 1 c ground walnuts,1/3 c packed brown suger, 1/3 c of spenda.1/3 c of margarine and 1/3 c of applesauce. i cooked it for 12 min at 350 in pan 16x8, for filling i used 1/2 c of sugar and 1/2 c of splenda and no salt. this made the filling very thin but my husband liked it . i also mixed the egg white mixture in with the lemon mixture..delicous probably would have been better if i had doubled the filling recipe but healthier my way
