Ann Lander's Best Lemon Meringue Pie (With Never-Fail Meringue) Recipe
Posted by
Ingredients:
- 1 baked and cooled 9 inch pie shell (my butter pie crust kittencal's no-fail buttery flaky pie pastry/crust works great!)
- 1/3 cup freshly-squeezed lemon juice (if you like an extreme lemon taste then add in a couple more tbsp lemon juice)
Directions:
- In a double boiler, or a heavy bottomed saucepan, mix sugar and cornstarch together; add in the 2 cups COLD water.
- In a small cup/bowl,combine the egg yolks with lemon juice, and the yellow food colouring; whisk until well mixed.
- Add to the sugar cornstarch mixture; whisk until mixed.
- Cook and mix/whisk until mixture thickens (about 6-7 minutes, do not over-boil mixture or it will not set properly), if you are making in a saucepan, be careful not to scorch the bottom of the pan, a double-boiler is definitely recommended for this.
- Remove from heat.
- Add/mix in the lemon extract, butter and vinegar; stir thoroughly.
- Pour the lemon mixture into cooled pie shell; set aside to make meringue.
- To make meringue:.
- Blend/whisk the cornstarch and cold water in a small saucepan.
- Add in boiling water, and cook, stirring until clear and thickened.
- Let mixture stand until COMPLETELY COLD.
- With an electric mixer at high speed, beat the egg whites until foamy.
- Gradually add in sugar, and beat until stiff but not dry.
- Turn mixer to low speed; add in pinch salt and vanilla.
- Gradually beat in the cold cornstarch mixture.
- Turn mixer again to high; beat well.
- Spread/pile meringue over cooled pie filling, making certain to seal the meringue to the baked crust.
- Set oven to 350°F, and bake for 10 minutes, or until the meringue is lightly browned.
