Categories     Pies

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pkg of dates
4 large eggs (separated)
1/4 tsp baking soda
2 tsp white or golden sugar
2-3 c water
1 single pie shell -baked n' cooled
1 Tbsp cornstarch

Steps:

  • 1. If possible....cut dates in chunks n' put into saucepan so they will cook down quicker.....add 2-3 cups of water n' stir often (LOW heat)...you can add a bit more water until it cooks down to a nice consistency.
  • 2. Once filling has cooked down, add sugar n' baking soda...then mix the cornstarch with water n' add it...stirring well. Let filling cool down for about 15 minutes or so, it will thicken more as it cools, then pour filling into the pie crust, smoothing it to the edges of the crust.
  • 3. Use egg whites( room temp ) for the meringue....adding some sugar a bit at a time, not all at once...about 1-1 & 1/2 tsps....I also add a bit of creme of tarter but you don't have to. When filling has cooled a bit, and once you have formed "peaks" in the meringue....PILE it on top of the date filling, spread it to the edges of the crust....make some nice peaks (can use the back of a spoon). Into a pre-heated oven at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes until a nice golden brown...do check though to make sure it doesn't get too dark as most ovens vary in temp. ** This pie MUST be served cold....refrigerate for 4-5 hrs. ENJOY !!

I'm not a huge fan of dates, but I really enjoyed this pie. The filling was sweet and tangy, and the crust was perfectly flaky.

This pie is so easy to make and it tastes amazing. I love the way the dates caramelize in the oven.

This pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be great with a cup of coffee or tea.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pie turned out dry and crumbly. I think I might have overbaked it.

I had some trouble getting the crust to come together, but the pie turned out great in the end. The filling was delicious and the crust was flaky and buttery.

This pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be great with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

This date pie was a hit! The filling was rich and gooey, and the crust was flaky and buttery. I'll definitely be making this again.
