Crust

1 box refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box

Filling

1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon Gold Medal™ All Purpose Flour
1 tablespoon yellow cornmeal
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 teaspoons grated tangerine peel
1/3 cup fresh tangerine juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
4 large eggs, slightly beaten

Garnish, if desired

Sweetened whipped cream
Tangerine peel strips

Instructions

Step 1
Heat oven to 450°F. Remove both pie crusts from the pouches; unroll on lightly floured surface. Stack the two crusts one on top of the other; roll into a 12-inch round. Press in bottom and up side of 9-inch glass pie plate; fold edges under and crimp. Prick bottom and side of crust with fork. Bake 8 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F. Cool crust 15 minutes.

Step 2
Meanwhile, in large bowl, mix all filling ingredients with whisk until blended. Pour into partially baked crust.

Step 3
Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until center is set, covering edges with foil after 20 minutes of baking to prevent excessive browning. Cool on cooling rack 1 hour. Garnish, if desired. Store covered in refrigerator.

Recipe Tips

Orange peel and juice can be substituted for the tangerine peel and juice.
