1¾ cups (220g) flour
2/3 cup (150g) cold butter, cubed
3 tablespoons (37g) sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon cold water (or more if needed)
For the filling:
3/4 cup (150g) sugar
5 tablespoons (45g) cornstarch
4 egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon salt
1½ cups (360ml) water
1/3 cup (80ml) fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
3 tablespoons (45g) butter
Italian meringue:
3 large egg whites (105g)
1 cup + Tbsp (210g) sugar
50ml water
Directions:
1. In a food processor, process flour, sugar and salt. Then add cubed butter and pulse until crumbs are formed. Add egg yolk and cold water, process until dough is formed. Do not over mix.
2. Transfer the dough to a work surface, pat into a ball and flatten into a disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 1 hour. Then roll out the dough on a lightly floured board. Lightly dust the top of the dough. Roll until the dough is about 1/8 inch thick. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch (23-24cm) pie pan. evenly press the pastry onto the bottom and up the sides of your pan. Trim off the excess dough off the top of the pan. Gently pierce the bottom of the crust with a fork. Transfer to the freezer for 30 minutes.
3. Meanwhile make the filling: in a small saucepan place sugar, cornstarch, salt and mix. Stir in water and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. In a medium bowl whisk egg yolks, gradually whisk in 1/2 cup of hot sugar mixture. Whisk egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan. Bring to a boil and continue to cook while stirring constantly until thick. remove from heat. Stir in butter, lemon zest. Let cool.
4. Preheat oven to 340F (170C).
5. Blind baking: line a parchment paper over the dough. Fill with dry beans, rice or pie weights. Bake for 15 min. Remove the weights and the parchment paper. Return to oven for another 10-15 minutes or until crust is slightly golden. Remove from oven. Let cool.
6. Fill the crust with the filling and place in the fridge while making the meringue.
7. Italian meringue: place sugar and water in a saucepan over high heat. Cook until sugar syrup reaches 244°F (118°C). meanwhile start to slowly whisk the egg whites in a stand mixer. When the syrup is ready, increase speed to high and with motor running, gradually pour syrup into the egg whites and whisk until becomes cool and meringue is thick and glossy (8-9 minutes).
8. Spread the meringue as you desire and brown with a kitchen torch.
Notes:
• Instead of Italian meringue you can you use French meringue. But find the Italian much better for this recipe.
• If you don’t have a torch you can broil the pie at 400F (200C) until meringue is golden brown, about 10 minutes.

Lemon Meringue Pie Recipe
pie filling ingredients:
9 Deep Dish Pie Crust
1 cup SUGAR
½ cup CORN STARCH
¼ tsp SALT
2¼ cup WATER
1 Tbsp LEMON ZEST
4 EGG YOLKS
3 Tbsp BUTTER
½ cup LEMON JUICE
meringue ingredients:
2 Tbsp SUGAR
1 Tbsp CORNSTARCH
½ cup WATER
4 EGG WHITES
1 tsp VANILLA
pinch of SALT
then another 4 Tbsp Sugar
Make your own pie crust from scratch, or to make the recipe super easy, just bake up a pre-made frozen pie crust.
Firstly, bake the crust and have it cooled and ready before beginning to make the pie filling.
Then break 4 eggs and separate the yolks from the whites in two separate bowls.
Zest two lemons, and then squeeze the juice to fill ½ cup.
To make the lemon pie filling:
In a saucepan, add the sugar, cornstarch, salt, and zest of two large lemons.
On medium heat, stir water into the saucepan and continue stirring the pan 15-20 minutes, or until the mixture thickens and begins two bubble.
Slowly spoon 5-6 Tbsp of the heated, thickened mixture in with the eggs yolks, stirring constantly so as not to cook the eggs.
Then stir the egg yolk mixture into the saucepan with the rest of the heated filling.
Stir in the lemon juice and butter and continue stirring until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie shell and set aside to cool.
To make the Meringue:
In a small saucepan add 1 Tbsp of cornstarch, 2 Tbsp sugar, and ½ cup water.
Mix the three ingredients well and on the stovetop heat over medium heat, stirring until the mixture thickens and clears slightly.
Set saucepan aside to cool.
In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy.
Add in vanilla and a pinch of salt and beat again to mix.
Gradually beat in 4 Tbsp of sugar, 1 Tbsp at a time.
Then beat in the cooled cornstarch mixture.
Continue beating until stiff peaks form.
To finish the Pie:
Take a spatula and spread the meringue evenly over the pie filling.
Lightly chop the top of the meringue to form peaks on top of the pie.
Slide the pie into an oven preheated to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and bake meringue for 10-12 minutes,
or until the top of the top of the meringue sets and shows a nice color.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow to cool completely before slicing.
When cooled, store pie in the refrigerator beneath a pie dome, do not wrap meringue in plastic wrap or foil.

In this video, Nicole shows you how to make a light and bright lemon meringue pie. This dessert recipe uses the zest and juice of a lemon to make a tangy and sweet curd. After mixing together the lemon with sugar, flour, corn starch, egg yolk, and other ingredients over the stove, pour the mixture into a pie shell. Mix the egg whites together with sugar until they are sharply peaked and place it over the curd. Bake the pie for 20 minutes and let it cool before slicing into it. It’s fresh, sweet, and summer doesn’t have a tastier treat!
