Here is someone that loved the taste of the North Carolina Lemon Pie at Crumbl:
- This was REFRESHING ???? The filling reminded me of the lemon cream pie yogurt I ate as a kid. But thicker. It’s a good balance of tart and sweet. I’m a tart lover so I wish they’d remembered the lemon slice. I didn’t realize until after I ate the whole thing. Whoops! The whip cream is good as always. The crust almost reminded me of crushed vanilla wafers, but the description says something about salty crackers?
It has been spoiled that the North Carolina Lemon Pie limited time offer (LTO) dessert will be on the Crumbl Cookies rotating menu from July 21-26, 2025. Many are asking what makes North Carolina Lemon Pie different from a traditional Lemon Pie. The answer is the saltine crust. Some people make the crust with Ritz crackers but ultimately the crust is more saltine based. As some would say, it is the ultimate sour, sweet, salty perfect pie combo.
The Crumbl non cookie dessert is described as “a tangy and sweet lemon pie filling baked on a slightly salty crust, topped with decorative dollops of whipped cream and a fresh lemon slice.
Here is a review from a customer that was able to test out The North Carolina Lemon Pie dessert:
- The pie filling and whipped cream was good on the North Carolina Lemon Pie but I didn’t care for the taste of the crust, I’ve had the key lime pie and I enjoyed the crust on that one but this one tasted different. They also forgot my lemon slice but it was very lemony without it. (The store was slightly busy and a couple was also crowding the pickup counter for no reason so I’m not worried about a tiny lemon slice)
Their (Crumbl Cookies’) version of this lemon pie is more commonly known as Atlantic Beach Pie, which has a saltine/Ritz crust.
