Is it seriously August? Wait, what? This can’t be happening. My most favorite season of the year is summer and it’s flying by. I refuse to give up my shorts and flip flops anytime soon, however. I’m also going to keep making summery desserts like this No-Bake Lemon Pie long into the winter. Heck, who am I kidding? I make no-bake desserts all year long.

I love any dessert that starts with a pre-made crust because it usually means all I need to do is a little whisking and mixing. I can handle that!

Preparing the Pie

It takes literally minutes to whip up this pie!

  1. Whisk the pudding and milk together.
  2. Spread half of the pudding over the prepared crust.
  3. Combine the other half of the pudding with 1/2 of the whipped cream.
  4. Spread over pudding layer.
  5. Top with remaining whipped cream.

SUPER simple, right?! If you’re really pressed for time, go ahead and use Cool Whip in place of the homemade whipped cream (I won’t tell).

After placing the pie in the fridge for 3-4 hours, it’s ready to eat!

I garnished mine with some extra whipped topping and thinly sliced lemons.

If you do add some lemons as garnish to the pie, add them immediately before serving. It’s my experience that if the pie is refrigerated with the lemons on top, they can create a bitterness that seeps into the pie. ?

What I love about this no bake lemon pie is that the layers get lighter and fluffier as they go up.

The entire dessert is light and refreshing. You don’t feel overstuffed after eating a slice.

It has the perfect infusion of lemon flavor. You can taste the lemon, but it’s definitely not overwhelming.

This no bake lemon pie is a great summer dessert the entire family will enjoy. I plan to make this at least a couple more times in the next few months. I hope you try it, too!

      Yes, all of my recipes use American ingredients. I wish I could recommend some substitutes for you but I’m not very familiar with brands offered in England. I’m so sorry I couldn’t be of more help!

    I’m new to cooking & baking so I’m confused because no where in your instructions do you mention the 6 tbs of powdered sugar. Is it only for the heavy whipped cream? Is the lemon zest a garnish? This looks delicious. I’m going with the Cool Whip version.

      Hi Elaine, I mention the powdered sugar in step #3. It should be added when you’re making the whipped cream. If you decide to use cool whip, you won’t need the powdered sugar or heavy whipping cream!
