Lemon Supreme Pie is a cherished dessert that brings together the best of flaky crusts and creamy, tangy fillings. This pie has its roots in the heart of the Midwest, where lemons were once a rare treat, making any lemon dessert a special occasion. My grandmother used to make this pie for Sunday dinners, and it was always the first to disappear from the table. The combination of a buttery crust and a zesty lemon filling is a perfect balance of flavors, making it a delightful treat for any gathering or just a cozy family meal.
Lemon Supreme Pie pairs beautifully with a dollop of freshly whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. For a full Midwestern spread, consider serving it alongside a hearty roast chicken or pork tenderloin dinner, with sides of green beans and mashed potatoes. The pie’s bright citrus flavor provides a refreshing contrast to savory dishes, making it a perfect ending to a comforting meal.
