Citrus Pies and Tarts Recipes

There's more to citrus than key lime pie.

Bright, bold, and anything but boring. Discover homemade citrus pies and tarts that pair fresh lemon and lime flavors with buttery crusts and bold twists. From Lemon Meringue Pie and Brown Butter Lemon Blueberry Tart to classic Key Lime Pie, these recipes are bright, balanced, and built to impress.

Lemon Meringue Pie

This isn't your grandma's lemon meringue pie. Fresh lemons, a flaky homemade crust, and a toasted meringue are finished with a splash of Deep Eddy Lemon Vodka for bright citrus flavor that's bold without being boozy.

Brown Butter Lemon Blueberry Tart

A creamy lemon tart swirled with homemade blueberry jam and baked in a brown butter Biscoff crust. Bright lemon, sweet blueberries, and plenty of buttery cookie crunch in every bite. It's the kind of dessert that lands somewhere between a key lime pie, a lemon bar, and a blueberry pie.

Key Lime Pie

Bright, creamy, and perfectly balanced, this key lime pie combines Nellie & Joe's Key West Lime Juice with sweetened condensed milk and a touch of white chocolate. My favorite version uses a Biscoff cookie crust, though a classic graham cracker crust works just as well.
