Categories     Pie

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
4 egg whites, beaten till stiff not dry
4 egg yolks, slightly beaten
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest, grated
1 pint heavy cream, whipped

Steps:

  • Sift together 1 cup sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar.
  • In a large grease-free mixing bowl beat the egg whites at a slow steady speed. When they are foamy gradually add the cream of tartar and sugar mixture. When the meringue begins to form soft peaks, increase to a moderate beating speed.
  • Beat another 5 minutes, until the meringue is thick, but still glossy, and forms peaks when the beaters are lifted.
  • Line a well greased 9 or 10 inch pie pan with meringue mixture to form a pie crust.
  • Bake for 1 hour at 225 degrees.
  • Stir in 1/2 cup sugar to egg yolks with lemon juice and zest, cook in double boiler (or Micro) until very thick about 8-10 minutes.
  • Cool.
  • Combine 1/2 whipped cream with Lemon egg mixture and fill meringue shell, chill 24 hours.
  • Cover with remaining whipped cream.
  • Serve AWAY!

I'm allergic to lemons, so I made this pie with lime curd instead. It was still delicious!

This pie was a disappointment. The crust was soggy and the lemon curd was too tart.

This pie was delicious, but I found the crust to be a little too thick. Next time, I'll try using a different recipe for the crust.

I made this pie for my family and they loved it! The crust was flaky and the lemon curd was smooth and tangy. The meringue was perfectly toasted.

This pie was heavenly! The combination of the lemon curd, meringue, and crust was perfect. It was the perfect balance of sweet and tart.
