This creamy 4 ingredient lemon pie is so easy to make. Plus, it is no bake, so it is a perfect summer treat.

If you are looking for a cool and creamy summer dessert, you are in the right place. This super simple lemon pie comes together in just a few minutes. The hardest part is waiting for it to chill.
My husband absolutely loves my grandma’s frozen key lime pie. She usually makes him one for his birthday, and it is what he’ll request if asked what he wants for dessert.

Little Dude loves it, too. Luckily, it is easy to make.
So when she requested a lemon pie for her birthday this year, we decided to adapt her recipe and make it lemon. I don’t know why we didn’t do it sooner!
This pie really is about perfect. If you have a mixing bowl and a spatula, you can put it together.
Making Lemon Pie With Condensed Milk
We used a premade graham cracker crust for simplicity. Plus, the plastic insert works great as a lid for transport.
Of course, you can make your own crust with graham cracker crumbs and butter. Crushed vanilla wafers or gingersnaps would be good options as well.


The filling just takes a can of sweetened condensed milk, and 8 oz. tub of Cool Whip (or similar) and a lemon. Add the lemon zest along with the juice for even bigger lemon flavor.
If you don’t have a fresh lemon, you can use a third of a cup of bottled lemon juice instead. However, the fresh lemon juice does taste better, and it only takes a minute or two to juice it.


Just mix everything together and spoon into the crust. Then chill it for at least a couple of hours.
You can make the pie a day in advance if your want it to really set up. Just put a cover on it and put it in the refrigerator.

This no bake lemon pie is also great frozen. Again, you will want to give it several hours in the freezer before serving.
That’s all it takes! You can be digging into a cold piece of lemon heaven as soon as it is done chilling.
More Super Easy No Bake Pies
Another great way to satisfy your sweet tooth during the summer is a 3 ingredient Jello pie. It can easily become any fruit flavor of Jello that you love.
Easy creamy banana pie is another great no cook recipe. It is quick and easy to put together as well!

No-bake key lime cheesecake pie is super cream, and oh, so dreamy. Swirls of cream cheese whipped cream make it extra beautiful. It is an absolute favorite.
Or make a fluffy peanut butter pie with chocolate covered pretzel crust. It is rich and creamy.
