Gluten-free lemon meringue pie with a sweet graham cracker crust.
Ingredients:
  • 1 (13.5 ounce) package gluten-free graham crackers
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter, or as needed
  • 2 (14 ounce) cans sweetened condensed milk
  • 5 eggs, separated
  • 4 lemons, juiced and zested
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon cream of tartar
Instructions:
  • Crush graham crackers in a resealable bag with a rolling pin. Combine with melted butter in a bowl until crumbs stick together. Press into serving dish to create crust. Chill in freezer until firm, approximately 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to a toasty 325 degrees F (165 degrees C and let the crust thaw at room temperature.
  • Combine condensed milk, egg yolks, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a bowl, whisk until smooth, then pour over the crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes until the pie is just set. Remove from oven and keep it on.
  • In a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl, whip egg whites until medium peaks form. Gradually add sugar while continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in salt and cream of tartar. Spread meringue over pie and use a fork to create peaks.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Continue baking the pie until the meringue topping turns a beautiful golden brown, approximately 15 minutes. Switch off the oven and allow the pie to cool inside for around 30 minutes.
