This no bake Lemon Cream Pie is a quick and easy twist on the classic. Made with cream cheese, cream, and lots of lemon with a buttery graham cracker crust.

My grandmother made the best lemon cream pie. It was silky smooth and so incredibly delicious. Once I was married, she and I decided that her traditional recipe could easily be adapted into a no bake lemon cream pie that would be easier to make and just as smooth and creamy without ever having to turn on the oven! It is perfect!

How to Make No Bake Lemon Cream Pie Recipe

If you have ever had a slice of lemon cream pie, you’ll know how smooth and full of lemon flavor that it is. To make the classic, it includes eggs which then requires the pie to be baked and cooled before serving. For Southern summers, we do our very best to find every way possible to make meals and desserts that do not require us to ever turn on the oven! That’s why I love this no bake version of a favorite dessert.

All you need to make this no bake pie is a graham cracker crust and five simple ingredients!

To make it, you begin by making your graham cracker crust. Since this is a no bake pie recipe, I prefer to use the no bake graham cracker crust method. Of course, you can use whichever is your personal preference.

Then, you cream together your cream cheese, confectioner’s sugar, vanilla extract, lemon juice, zest along with your whipping cream until well blended and smooth.

Then, you spread the lemon cream pie filling into your prepared graham cracker crust.

Now you’ll chill your pie until firm, at least for an hour.

When ready to serve, top your pie with your lemon slices that you’ve cut into wedges.

Here’s my No Bake Lemon Cream Pie recipe. I hope you love this version as much as we do!

Enjoy!
