Tips:
- Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help them whip up more easily and give your pie a lighter texture.
- Don't overbeat your egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites will make your pie tough and dense.
- Be careful not to overfold your egg whites into the batter. Overfolding can deflate the egg whites and make your pie fall.
- Bake your pie in a preheated oven. This will help it rise evenly and prevent it from sinking in the middle.
- Don't open the oven door while your pie is baking. This can cause the pie to fall.
- Let your pie cool completely before serving. This will help it set and make it easier to slice.
- Serve your pie with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, whipped cream, or ice cream.
