Classic Lemon Meringue Pie

RECIPE

One of my favorite recipes growing up in Burbank was a Lemon Meringue Pie. The Meyer lemons were perfect for this and when I was creating my lemon curd - I knew I’d be using Meyer lemons as the juice. They are more fragrant than regular lemons, a little sweeter, and less acidic.

Cooking Instructions

HIDE IMAGES
Step 1
In a large bowl mix together the All-Purpose Flour (165 g) , Granulated Sugar (8 g) , and Kosher Salt (10 g) . With a pastry cutter, two knives, or your hands cut the Unsalted Butter (225 g) into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add the Water (45 mL) one tablespoon at a time until the dough comes together but is not sticky.
Step 2
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and form into a disk. Dust the top with flour and roll the dough out to 1⁄8” thickness and approximately 12” around.
Step 3
Put the dough in your pie dish with the dough going over the edge, then crimp or pinch around the pie lip. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Step 4
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 5
Remove the dough from the fridge and lightly prick the shell with a fork and line with foil or parchment and fill with pie weights or dried beans.
Step 6
Bake for 10 minutes, then remove the weights. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until light golden brown.
Step 7
In a small saucepan on medium-low, whisk the Corn Starch (15 g) into the Just Jan’s® Meyer Lemon Curd (2 jars) and heat the mixture. Don’t allow the mixture to boil.
Step 8
While the pie crust is still warm pour the lemon curd into the crust.
Step 9
In a large clean, dry bowl, beat the Egg Whites (5) , Cream of Tartar (9 g) , Vanilla Extract (2 mL) , and Kosher Salt (2 g) . Once the mixture gets soft peaks, spoon the Granulated Sugar (100 g) into the egg whites one tablespoon at a time. Beat until stiff peaks form.
Step 10
Spread the meringue over the pie and using a spatula or spoon, make little peaks all around the pie.
Step 11
Reduce the temperature of the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and bake the pie for 15 minutes until the meringue is golden.
Step 12
Allow the pie to cool for 2 hours, then refrigerate for another 2 hours before cutting into it.
