Recipe Description
So, I’m in love with the name of this pie. Tangerine Cream Pie. It has a ring to it doesn’t it? So, I went on a hunt for tangerines awhile back for this recipe. They weren’t in season, but I did not care. I paid the extra and got myself some out of season tangerines for this pie and I don’t regret it. The pie is sort of like a lemon cream pie, but with tangerines.
