Here is the short version for your brain: If it has eggs or dairy, put it in the fridge. If it’s a store-bought pie, check the box. They usually know what they are doing.
If it’s a vegan, oil-based lemon pie? Maybe counter-safe for a day. But honestly, why risk it? The fridge is where pies go to stay delicious.
So, next time you bake a lemon pie, don’t fret. Give it a cool down, and save yourself the worry. Your stomach will thank you, and your taste buds will still get their moment in the sun. Now, pass me a slice. I’m ready.
