Ingredients
Method
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition until the mixture is smooth and pale.
Stir in the milk, lemon zest, and fresh lemon juice until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing. The layers within the pie will have separated, creating a custard-like bottom and a light, fluffy top.
Serve chilled or at room temperature, dusted with powdered sugar if desired.
