Lemon meringue pie from Betty Crocker's Picture Cook Book by Betty Crocker

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Easter dessert, 2021. Delicious, day-of and for 2 days after! even if a little on the sugary side for me. I followed the directions exactly, for 9" pie (corningware pieplate), using Crisco and butter for the "pastry crust". Brilliant result for a first-ever attempt. Maybe next time beat meringue a little longer (I did not get it quite to "stiff peaks") because it got sort of flat after sitting out for several hours. Mom said it tasted just like home. Even the crust passed muster. I also love that this uses exactly three whole eggs and exactly one (large-ish) lemon, no waste. I was inspired to try it out because I read, here on this website, about the great cake and pie recipes in this book -- now I'm a believer.
