Step 1

Preheat the oven to 450°. Place the prepared pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan and press it into the sides. Trim the excess dough and finish the edge as desired. Prick the bottom of the pie crust with a fork and place it in the freezer while you prepare the filling.

Step 2

In a large bowl whisk together the eggs, flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Slowly whisk in the butter. Set aside.

Step 3

Bake the chilled pie rust for 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and reduce the temperature to 375°.

Step 4

Stir the filling once more and then pour into the hot pie crust. Bake on the bottom rack of the oven for 35-40 minutes, until the center slightly jiggles, and the top is lightly browned.

Step 5

Allow the pie to cool completely before serving.
