Steps:
- Begin with the filling. Wash lemons; cut off both ends and discard. Slice lemons very thinly, rinds and all. Place in a mixing bowl and cover with sugar. Stir to mix well. Cover and set aside for 2 hours or longer.
- While lemons are macerating, make pie crust dough. Sift together flour and salt into a large mixing bowl. Mix in shortening until pieces are the size of peas. Gradually add water, a tablespoon at a time, until dough is soft and easy to work. Do not mix too much.
- Divide dough in two, one piece slightly larger than the other, and form two balls. Wrap each in paper or plastic film and refrigerate 30 minutes or longer.
- When ready to assemble pie, roll out the two portions of dough on a floured board.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Line a 9-inch pie plate with larger portion of pastry. To the lemon mixture, add the eggs (the sugar will have dissolved into a syrup). Mix well to blend. Pour into the pie shell. Top with the second piece of dough. Crimp edges well to prevent leaking and cut a few air vents in the top.
- Place pie on a cookie sheet in preheated oven and bake 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake 30 minutes longer, or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean.

SHAKER LEMON PIE
Thanksgiving often coincides with the arrival of all kinds of great citrus, which is why the chef Elisabeth Prueitt, of Tartine in San Francisco, offered this take on a classic Shaker lemon pie. Traditionally made from whole lemons, this version also incorporates blood oranges and cardamom, and it's a bright, welcome addition to the pecan and pumpkin desserts this time of year. Start it the day before by slicing the fruit and leaving it to sit in sugar overnight, then mix it with beaten eggs the next day. At home, Ms. Prueitt uses her tangy all-purpose cream cheese dough, which also happens to be gluten-free, but you could use regular pie dough if you prefer. Baking the pan directly on the oven floor (or on a baking stone placed on the oven floor) helps ensure that it browns evenly.

Steps:
- Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice lemons and orange paper-thin, discarding the thick, pithy ends and any seeds. Put in a glass bowl and toss with granulated sugar. Cover and let sit at room temperature for at least 8 hours or overnight.
- Roll out the pie dough: Place one dough disk on a surface lightly dusted with cornstarch or tapioca. Roll dough to 1/8 inch/3 millimeters thick, rolling from the center evenly out in all directions. If the dough is cracking and is not pliable, let it sit at room temperature a little longer to warm up. Dust with additional cornstarch as needed to discourage sticking.
- Cut out a circle 2 inches/5 centimeters larger than the pie pan. Carefully lift dough and transfer to pan, easing dough into the bottom and sides but not stretching or pressing too firmly, or it will shrink during baking. If dough tears, patch with a little extra dough, pressing gently to adhere. Trim dough, leaving a 1/4-inch overhang. Refrigerate for 15 minutes, and roll second dough disk in the same way.
- If any seeds have floated to top of citrus mixture, fish them out. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, salt and cardamom until blended, then add to the lemon mixture, mixing thoroughly.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. If you have a baking stone, place it on the oven floor. Pour lemon filling into chilled shell, evenly distributing citrus pieces, and moisten the edge of the shell with water. Gently transfer upper crust onto the pie. Crimp the dough together using your fingers or a fork, and trim so it is flush with the edge of the pan and there is no overhang.
- Brush the top of the dough with the cream and chill for 20 minutes. Cut small vents in the top of the dough with a sharp knife, then place pie on baking stone or directly on the oven floor for 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack in the middle of the oven and bake another 30 to 40 minutes, until the top crust is golden brown and cooked through. Let cool before dusting with confectioners' sugar and serving.

Steps:
- Zest and thinly slice the lemons into rounds, removing any seeds.
- Add the lemon zest and slices and 2 cups (400 g) sugar to a large bowl. Stir to coat the lemon slices well. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and macerate in the refrigerator for 4 hours, or up to overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Add the beaten eggs, melted butter, flour, and salt to the lemon mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
- On a lightly floured surface, divide the disc of pie dough in half. Working 1 portion at a time, form into a smaller disc and roll out into a circle about ⅛ inch (3mm) thick. Drape 1 dough round in a 9-inch (23 cm) pie dish. Fill the pie dough with the lemon mixture, then top with the other dough round. Trim any excess dough around the edges, press the edges together and crimp to seal.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and water until fully combined.
- Brush the top of the pie with the egg wash and sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of sugar. Cut 4 small decorative slits in the center of the pie to vent.
- Place the pie dish on a rimmed baking sheet and transfer to the oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the crust begins to brown.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (180°C) and bake the pie for 22-24 minutes more, or until the crust is shiny and deep golden brown.
- Let the pie cool for 45-60 minutes before slicing and serving.
- Top each slice with a lemon twist and dust with powdered sugar.
- Enjoy!

SHAKER LEMON PIE
This regional pie comes from Pleasant Hill, Kentucky (also known as Shakertown), which is in the Bluegrass region of the state. It's become a staple dessert in this part of the country not only because of its super-flaky pie dough and intense citrus filling, but also because it uses pantry ingredients and limits waste. What makes Shaker lemon pie so unique is that it uses whole lemons - peel, pith, juice and flesh. This involves slicing the lemons paper-thin and macerating them with sugar and vanilla for at least a whole day. The result: A tangy, chewy filling that's every lemon-lovers dream. Vanilla extract is not traditional in this pie, but we like how it rounds out the sharpness of the lemons and adds a subtle and familiar flavor. We also suggest serving this pie with a dollop of lightly sweetened whipped cream to make it even more luxurious.

Steps:
- For the lemons: Trim the ends of the lemons, then quarter each lemon lengthwise. Using a sharp knife, very thinly slice the lemons; they should be paper-thin. Discard any seeds. Transfer the slices and any juices to a medium bowl and toss with the sugar and vanilla until all the sugar is moistened. Cover and refrigerate, stirring every so often, until the lemons have softened and start to turn translucent and the sugar is mostly dissolved, at least 24 hours and up to 48 hours.
- For the pie dough: Pulse the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor to combine. Add the butter and process until the largest pieces of butter are pea-size. Transfer to a large bowl.
- Combine the vodka, vinegar and 4 tablespoons of ice water in a small bowl. Drizzle the wet ingredients over the dough, then mix with a fork until shaggy pieces form. Knead the dough in the bowl with your hands a couple of times until it comes together (it will be dry, which is fine).
- Transfer the large clumps of dough to a work surface. Drizzle 1 tablespoon ice water over any remaining smaller bits of dough in the bowl and knead again to bring it together. If the remaining dough is still too dry to come together, add more ice water 1 tablespoon at a time. Add to the dough on the work surface and press together into a single mass, incorporating any dry bits. Pat the dough into a 1-inch-thick block.
- Divide the block into 4 pieces with a bench scraper or knife. Stack the pieces on top of one another, tucking any unincorporated dry bits in between the layers. Flatten the dough into a 3/4-inch-thick block. Repeat this process (cutting, stacking and flattening) 3 more times; this creates layers of butter in the dough that produce a wonderfully flaky crust.
- Divide the dough in half and form into 1-inch-thick disks; wrap each disk tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 3 hours and preferably overnight.
- Once the lemons have macerated and the pie dough has chilled, place a rimmed baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
- For the filling: Take the macerated lemons out of the refrigerator and whisk in 4 of the eggs, the cornstarch and salt until well combined. Set aside while you roll the dough.
- Roll out 1 disk of dough on a lightly floured surface or on a piece of parchment into a 12-inch round (about 1/4-inch thick). Ease the dough into a 9-inch pie plate. Pour the lemon filling over the crust. Repeat the rolling with the remaining dough, then carefully place it on top of the filling. Trim the edges, leaving a 1-inch overhang, then tuck the overhanging dough under itself; crimp the edges with a fork or your fingers.
- Whisk the remaining egg with a splash of water in a small bowl, then brush all over the pie dough. Finally, cut 4 small slits in the center of the pie to release steam while baking.
- Place the pie directly on the preheated baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375 degrees F and continue to bake until the crust is deep golden-brown all over and cooked through and the filling is set, about 1 hour 15 minutes longer. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the whipped cream: While the pie is cooling, combine the cream and confectioners' sugar in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until it is light, fluffy and holds soft peaks, about 2 minutes. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Cut the room temperature pie into wedges and serve with a dollop of whipped cream.
SHAKER LEMON PIE
This is the Runner-Up recipe for 1986 in the San Francisco Chronicle, by Marion Cunningham. Only three ingredients go into this old-fashioned Shaker dessert: lemon slices - peel and all - sugar and eggs. The filling is more like marmalade than pie filling and may take some getting used to. Serve wedges warm - not hot - or at room temperature with vanilla ice cream.

SHAKER LEMON PIE
Also known as Ohio lemon pie, this Shaker lemon pie is a Midwestern favorite. Its thrifty use of whole lemons is unique and gives the pie a lovely combination of sweet, tart and slightly bitter flavors. Lemon lovers won't be able to stop at a single piece. -Deb Perry, Traverse City, Michigan
