Test Kitchen Tip: To easily transfer pastry, wrap it around your rolling pin ($21, Target) and carefully unroll it into the pie plate.

Lemon Meringue Pie

The tangy homemade filling in our best lemon meringue pie recipe is a favorite for all citrus dessert fans. Freshly squeezed lemon juice is a must here (bottled juice won't cut it). To get the most juice from the lemon, try microwaving it for 10 to 20 seconds, then roll it on the countertop under your palm to break up the pulp inside before cutting.

Lemon Velvet Cream Pie

Tangy lemon combined with sweetened condensed milk make a rich filling in this top-rated pie recipe from pastry chef Alan Carter. The secret to the picture-perfect clean slices of pie is the addition of unflavored gelatin, which helps set the pie.

Raspberry Pie with Chambord

A combo of whipped cream and cream cheese creates an extra-decadent topping for this fresh raspberry pie recipe. The fruit filling is gently spiked with Chambord (black raspberry-flavor liqueur). If you can't find Chambord, try substituting with orange liqueur.

Kahlua's coffee flavor brings out the richness of the semisweet chocolate and toasted pecans in this rich twist on traditional pecan pie. And if the Kahlua in the filling of this—one of our best pie recipes—wasn't enough coffee flavor for your liking, just wait until you try the coffee whipped cream that goes with it.

Fresh Strawberry Pie

When berry season rolls around, be sure to grab a few extra cartons of strawberries to make this all-time favorite pie recipe.

Mile-High Caramel Apple Pie

Four pounds of apples go into this towering pie (hence "mile-high" for the name. The best part about one of our favorite apple pies? You don't have to peel a single one!
