Debbie's Famous Lemon Meringue Pie


Lemon Meringue Pie
Base
1 packet of White Wings biscuit base - Make up as directed on packet
Filling
3 eggs
1 can condensed milk
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons caster sugar


  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C or 160°C for fan forced
  2. Make up biscuit base and put into a 23cm pie dish. Place in oven while you make the filling.
  3. Squeeze the juice from the lemon into a cup. Separate the eggs, putting the yolks into a medium sized bowl and the whites in a large bowl. Beat the egg yolks until a thick lemon colour. Fold in the condensed milk and lemon juice and beat together.
  4. Pour mixture over the biscuit base. Place in the oven while you make the meringue.
  5. Beat the egg whites until white and fluffy. Add the sugar bit by bit, whisking well every time you add the sugar. The whites will form stiff, glossy peaks.
  6. Spread the meringue over the filling. Return the pie to a cool oven about 140°C or 120°C for fan forced and bake for about 20-25 minutes, until the top is golden. Cool, and then serve.
