How to Make An Easy, Lemon Meringue Pie
Author: Dustinkerry
Easy lemon meringue pie is a great way to make an impressive looking and tasting dessert without a lot of fuss. Regular lemon meringue pie takes a lot of effort but there are a few shortcuts you can take in order to make an easy lemon meringue pie that tastes as good as one from scratch.



The first step in easy lemon meringue pie is the crust. If you're in a really big hurry, you can use a pre-made refrigerated crust. If you have a little extra time, use one half of a box of graham crackers (one package) and a stick of butter. Let the butter soften at room temperature, and crush the graham crackers until they're fairly fine. Mix the two and spread over the bottom of your pie pan and bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees. This is a delicious pie crust that will make your easy lemon meringue pie taste even better.



The next step in making easy lemon meringue pie is to prepare a lemon pudding mix according to the package instructions. Choose one like Rawleigh's Lemon Dessert Mix that's smooth and creamy and mix it carefully so it doesn't taste powdery and no one will be able to tell the difference between this and lemon filling made from scratch.



Pour the dessert mix into the pie crust and add some lemon zest for a little extra flavor. The final step in making easy lemon meringue pie before baking is to create the meringue. There are no shortcuts for this step, but don't let it intimidate you. Take three egg whites and ¼ a teaspoon of cream of tartar and beat with an electric mixer until the mixture is foamy. Add 6 tablespoons full of sugar a little at a time and beat the mixture until stiff peaks form in it.



Spoon the meringue on top of the pie filling and make sure the edges are completely covered, otherwise the inside of the pie will get soggy. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes; when the meringue starts to brown slightly your easy lemon meringue pie is almost done. Finally, let it cool for at least three hours before serving. This easy lemon meringue pie is a real crowd pleaser that will earn you the same street cred as a chef as if you'd made it from scratch.
