Tips:
- For a perfectly smooth pie, make sure the egg whites are at room temperature before whipping.
- Use a clean bowl and beaters to whip the egg whites. Any grease or residue can prevent the egg whites from whipping properly.
- Whip the egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form. This means that the egg whites will hold their shape when you lift the beaters out of the bowl.
- Fold the whipped egg whites into the lemon mixture gently. Over-mixing can cause the pie to deflate.
- Pour the pie filling into the prepared graham cracker crust and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
- Serve the pie chilled, with whipped cream or fresh berries on top.
