RASPBERRY LEMON MERINGUE PIE
Added additional lemon and raspberries to this classic and delicious lemon meringue pie, giving it a less-sweet and brighter flavor. Sometimes I don't make the meringue, I just cool the lemon filling for 3 hours and garnish with a dollop of whipped cream and a raspberry at serving time.

RASPBERRY MERINGUE PIE
Steps:
- Place flour and salt in a large bowl. Cut in butter using your fingertips, a pastry blender, or two knives. Mixture should resemble coarse bread crumbs. Sprinkle the dough with 3 tablespoons ice water and, with your fingertips or a fork, lightly toss dough, adding another 1 or 2 tablespoons, or more, of water if necessary, just until it is moist enough to come together into a ball. Knead a few times, pat into a flat disc, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least an hour. Remove dough from refrigerator about 10 minutes before rolling. Roll out dough to fit a 9 inch pie pan. Flute edge. Prick crust with a fork all over bottom or place dried beans on top of crust. Bake blind. Cool. Combine raspberries very gently with flour and sugar. Just before baking, make meringue. Beat egg whites with an electric mixer until light. Slowly beat in sugar and contine beating until firm. To assemble, remove beans from baked pie crust (if using) and place raspberry filling in pie shell. Spread meringue over raspberries, mounding in the center and making sure meringue touches the crust all around to seal. Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 40 minutes. Cool on a rack before serving.
Tips:
- Use fresh raspberries for the best flavor. Frozen raspberries can be used, but they should be thawed and drained before using.
- To make the meringue, whip the egg whites until they are stiff and glossy. If the egg whites are not whipped enough, the meringue will not be stable and will not hold its shape.
- When folding the meringue into the raspberry mixture, be gentle so that you do not deflate the meringue.
- Bake the pie in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the pie bakes evenly.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help to set the meringue and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
Raspberry meringue pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. If you love raspberries, then you will love this pie. So next time you are looking for a delicious and impressive dessert, give raspberry meringue pie a try.
