Lemon Meringue Pie You Need To Try

Lemon Meringue Pie

 

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had Lemon Meringue Pie. It is a real staple in my family. My mom made it, my grandmother, my great aunt, and the list goes on. But the time comes in every girl’s life when it’s time to pick up the graham cracker crust and do it herself. It’s time to make my first Lemon Meringue Pie.

 

So what did I do? I called my granny for help. Haha!!. What she proceeds to tell me on the phone is, “Alicia as many times as I have made Lemon Meringue Pie you don’t remember how to make it?” I said, “No granny because first, I was just waiting for it to be done and second you don’t measure anything.” And that’s the truth.

 

Now I have my pencil and notebook ready to take down the recipe. And as I thought she started talking about a dash of this, you can use a couple of lemons, and whip it until it looks right. Like granny that’s not a recipe these are like open-ended suggestions. So needless to say I didn’t make this pie cause I knew it was going to be a hot mess. Also, to be honestI couldn’t remember even where I put that piece of paper for the recipe. But I had a plan.

Let’s Make The Pie

My Grandmother was coming close to where I live so I said when we see each other, let’s make this Lemon Meringue Pie. I’ll take notes while we make it and it will be fun to bake it together. So she was on board. When we got together she already had all the ingredients ready to go.

 

We then proceeded to make the lemon meringue pie one step at a time while I wrote down the steps. And when I tell you this pie came out delicious it makes you want to slap your momma. PS(PLEASE DON’T SLAP YOUR MOMMA SHE’S BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH). But I was so glad it came out well and I finally have a recipe I can reuse.

 

So soon I plan to make another Lemon Meringue Pie. I’ll try to update the post to let you know how it went. But in the meantime below you will find my granny’s recipe of her Lemon Meringue Pie. Enjoy and tell my granny thank you in the comments. Love yall.
