To make this Sunny Yellow Pie, you will need the following ingredients:

For the crust:

- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tbsp ice water

For the filling:

- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 3 egg yolks
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tsp lemon zest
To make the crust, combine the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the egg yolk and ice water and mix until the dough comes together. Roll out the dough and place it in a 9-inch pie dish. Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes at 375°F.
To make the filling, combine the sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a saucepan. Gradually stir in the water until the mixture is smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and boils. Boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat. In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks and gradually stir in the lemon juice. Gradually stir in the hot sugar mixture. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and lemon zest. Pour the filling into the baked crust and chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
This Sunny Yellow Pie is a perfect combination of sweet and tangy flavors. The buttery crust adds a nice crunch to the creamy filling, while the lemon zest gives it a refreshing taste. This dish is perfect for any occasion and is sure to impress your guests.
