Hi Mr. Cooper. Thank you for the recipe. Lemon meringue pie is one of my favorites. How are you doing? Are things getting back to normal over there? I sure hope so. Things are slowly going back to normal here. I hope you are well. Take care. Have a great weekend.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Charlene, you are very welcome. Restrictions here are being lifted, though I am not sure it is quite the right time yet. I am staying well though. I hope you are too.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Adele, I think it is fairly well liked all over the world. I love it too.

[@wendysavage1294]

That pie looked so good I could almost taste it. Nothing could ever be too lemony. Delightful looking pie Geoff.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Wendy, thanks very much. It tasted very good indeed.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Patricia, I am glad you like lemon meringue pie. I am sure you will enjoy this one on Sunday.

[@raymondgimay4642]

@@geoffsbakingblog Yes Geoff.I know we will.Yum. Yum. :-)

[@Marshmish]

Good god Geoff, That's my favourite sweet! Beautifully executed I have to say although to time-consuming and expensive for me to make just for me and the wife on our own. We'll stick to having it as out sweet when we can eventually go out to our favourite restaurant. But I don't think it will taste as good as yours though. P.S. Your face at the end when you get to taste it. Priceless.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Marshall. It would be expensive for two, unless you kept it chilled at ate rather more than you might want until it had all gone. I was able to divest myself of most of it though, so it was fine for me. My haggard face is certainly priceless, to me. LOL.

[@Marshmish]

@@geoffsbakingblog Keep them coming mate. We enjoy them all.

[@salyblack1009]

That’s a big mouthful , to taste 😁😂👍 , I don’t blame you . You do make some Delicious Dishes . Thanks Saly

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Saly, Yes it was rather a large moiuthful, but I was able to cope. LOL.

[@lindahalford1691]

Geoff, your recipe is lovely made this a while back but have made another today for my family bubble. I didn't have enough lemons so made up with a jif lemon. Have also piped some mini meringues & dried them seperately for the top. It was unintentional but baked the case a bit too much & didn't want to dry your super base recipe by putting it in the oven any more. Thank you again for your presise directions & love your videos xxx

[@geoffsbakingblog]

HI Linda. I am glad you enjoy the recipe. I am sure the mini meringues will work very well too. I rather wish I could have a slice.

[@amandagrice7717]

I was eating that with you, this has to be my all time favourite pie, thanks for your video, now I have to make one but only got 3 lemons at the moment and they are not that big

[@geoffsbakingblog]

HI Amanda, I hope you do make it. If you have an orange you could use that juice from that too.

[@amandagrice7717]

@@geoffsbakingblog Hi Geoff, I was thinking that myself, a good reason to get up early tomorrow and get started, too full of pesto to do anything more tonight.

[@jarlathbyrne3146]

Hi Geoff, 30C sounds really hot. 19 here yesterday and we were sweltering! The pie looks delicious. I love your step by step approach to a difficult task. Well done! Enjoy the weekend. Jarlath Byrne

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Jarlath, The pie was very tasty indeed. It is still 30C here, and will go higher today too. Very warm indeed. Tomorrow should see a welcome drop in temperature. Have a good weekend yourself.

[@neesargon3497]

LMP . . My favourite! I don't make it any more cos I'm on my own now and I know I would eat the lot. Your recipe isn't exactly the same as mine but near enough. I always say that a LMP can't be too lemony. Very nice, Geoff. Thank you.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Nees, thanks very much. This was very lemony indeed.

[@neesargon3497]

Geoff Cooper ....Yum yum. I'll be right over! 😛

[@themusiccovenant]

Excellent

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Deepak John Cletus Menezes. Thanks very much.

[@elainebonfield3198]

🌺Hello Geoff, lemon meringue pie is an all time favourite of mine,I certainly will be baking this ,also if possible when you state the oven temperature could you possibly include the gas setting to,thank you Geoff and take care.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Elaine. I hope you enjoy the pie. I am not very good on gas marks so for instance 180C/350F is Gas Mark 4 and apparently 160C/325F(really329) is gas mark 3, which would imply that 170C/340F would be gas mark 3 1/2 if there is such a setting, but the conversion tables I looked at don't really show that.

[@brucebowen100]

Oh, this looks so good. Did you almost lose control and eat another piece and then more? Thanks for the video.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

HI. I was very good. I took a second slice for later and the remainder was delivered to my niece and her husband.

[@karenstewart8818]

My dad loved Lmp. I've never made it with a 'crispy' top before, but I may try that. Usually I just baked the meringue on top until the tips of the peaks were brown.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Karen. I have never have the pie without a crispy meringue. That was always how it was made when i was younger. These days I think restaurants tend to make an Italian meringue and then just blow torch the top, or put it under the grill/broiler for a few minutes. I don't think that is how I would like it. In fact cooking for longer would make the meringue more crispy and even chewy in the centre.

[@faridaaminy9734]

Geoff this recipe looks great, but unfortunately I can't make it cause it has citrus and that gives me migraine:(. But a tip for the parchment paper, just crimple it and then open it this will make it fit better in the crust.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Farida Aminy, thanks. It's a shame you cannot try it, but I understand. Migraines must be avoided if possible. I do scrunch my parchment paper when baking smaller tarts etc. But for this one the weight of the baking beans was enough to properly line the tart tin.
