Why is it that whenever I want to bake something and I search it up, John has just released the perfect video for me :) Thanks John

[@igivehairlife3]

Omg just want to say I won 2nd best in a baking contest with your pumpkin cupcake and pumpkin cheesecake. I combined the two. Baking the cake for about 10min then adding the cheesecake. Thank you so much!!! Your amazing

[@Mily.is_]

Congrats

[@cindyalam7490]

i LOVE that heart-shaped wooden spoon!!

[@PRGRAMMING]

I made this pie - It was amazing. Fun Fact - (I screwed up my original attempt - I used cream of tartar instead of cornflour for thickening the lemon curd - oops), this caused it not to thicken after 15 mins, and for it to taste really odd... My second attempt, I paid attention and used cornflour for the lemon curd (lol), and cream of tartar for the meringue (as I was supposed to, before I stuff it). It came together brilliantly! Seriously, my family was beyond impressed - I don't think they've had anything as good before. I used fresh products, and gave it to them the morning after it chilled in the fridge. Quite an amazing recipe! 10/10!!

[@Tellyawhat4]

Thank you, John. I really enjoyed my visit to your kitchen. I've written down every blessed detail about this recipe cuz I'm making it for Christmas dessert here in Australia! Can't wait!

[@Kindii_cane]

*slams hands on desk* I WANT TO MAKE THIS FOR MY MOM ASAP. Lemon Meringue Pie was her go-to dessert to make the fam when I was a kid :D

[@wildwomanherbs]

I'm doing that now. Hope I don't screw it up.

[@delia88209]

I made this yesterday. I came Out delicious and the curd came out beautiful

[@Metal_Mary]

Hi there, I'm making 2 lemon meringue pies as we speak! Yummy! My mom always took a big spoon of meringue and folded it into the curd. But I'm following your recipe to a "T" wish me luck.😊🍋🥧 Thanks John

[@rileymiller9276]

This was like a baking lesson and a science lesson, I loved it! 🤓 🖤

[@MMSugranyes]

Lovely! This is my ALL TIME FAVORITE PIE EVER!! Making the crust worth it! 💯 A extra plus!

[@brendaplants3412]

That pie looks so yummy. I love lemon pie..Thanks so much for making me drool lol

[@that_si_chick7]

Just made your pie right now! I can’t wait to try it. Thank you for all you do, John! My family & I greatly appreciate your expertise.

[@flymike1994]

Wow, this was a huge hit for Easter dinner. I used fresh Ponderosa lemon from my greenhouse . Thanks for making look good.

[@SophieRoseTattoos]

When I want to bake something, I always see come to this page first. ❤

[@deborahojapinwa7834]

Your recipes have made me fall in love with lemons. Can't wait to try this out. Thanks for sharing John ❤❤❤

[@shannonwyrick4735]

Literally the best lemon meringue pie ever! It's the only recipe I will use.

[@barbiebarrios4908]

I Love the Best Lemon Meringue Recipe and is so good 🍋

[@sheiladaley6080]

Looks amazing. Best display of making this pie I have watched

[@AstroMartine]

I've actually tried a few your recipes, friends and family were impressed with the results 😁

[@CLAIRE_LOTUS]

Stop it I was just watching your old lemon meringue pie video as I’m planning to make one this Sunday! 🍋 thank you John 😃

[@gregbrown3082]

0:06 Honestly, this one ground my gears a bit. Sometimes the video directions don't exactly match the recipe. For example, I just followed the link which states "425 degrees," where here you say "375 degrees." In the video, you used 5 egg whites, saying "You don't need to use it all!" In the link, you say only use 4. I did use 4, and it wasn't enough meringue. I super appreciate every recipe you've posted for us amateurs. But you're definitely having a quality/quantity issue, my guy.

[@Waffl3B1T]

Oh this is something I’m gonna make today. To the store!!

[@Nursegerl]

Made this delicious pie to bring to a friend’s home for dessert. It was the best lemon meringue ever! The meringue was perfect! I plan on baking some of your pumpkin treats next. Thank you so much for your recipes. 🍰🧁🥧

[@ctaylor1271]

I am always so insired by your style and passion for cooking! Thank you.

[@Lichan525]

Whenever I feel like making a dessert, John is my go to guy ❤

[@phil4208]

It would take extreme self control to not eat this in one day by myself in the dark

[@danielbeck9191]

Me TOO!!!!

[@sammansfield21]

Same. I love lemon meringue pie 🥧 🩷

[@uzocl2.s]

Why the dark?

[@maryfaithsnyder3929]

Don’t fight that feeling.

[@NelsonClick]

...while sitting on the kitchen floor in my robe and pajama bottoms. Dear God! That sounds like fun. 👍

[@Craxin01]

I really love citrusy desserts. One little tip I got years ago for juicing lemons or other citrus fruit is to put them between your palms and squeeze while rolling before cutting and juicing. It breaks down the membranes letting more juice out with less effort with the juicer.

[@SavoryExperimentsCooking]

That meringue topping looks amazing!

[@bestywiggins1843]

1/4 Cup of cornstarch is 50 grams, not 25. His other video for this pie also calls for 1/4C cornstarch, and was correctly stated as 50 grams. It’s kind of important. Use the 50g for great results. This is a delicious pie. Thank you for the tutorial.

[@tori5315]

oh wow. i used 25 ;-; hope my pie isn’t messed up

[@lonechristensen8824]

Thank you! 👍

[@johnterhune6809]

Well that explains why my pie was basically soup.

[@karinasanchez3285]

🤩🤩🤩 oh my oh my oh MY! That looks incredible 💯

[@miche09v87]

I love all your recipes!! Please do a white almond raspberry cake!! 🩷

[@lavague7648]

Thanks for video. I had two semi succesfull trials so far. I have seen a pool of curd created while my lemon pie kept in the refrigerator. Want some help here. Are you gelatinised the starch before and after the addition of egg yolks? Should i increase the corn starch dossage to minimise this degradation?

[@saraloper8451]

That is my favorite pie I Love Love Lemon Meringue pie Yummy

[@emilyrose7943]

Following along with you and it's going great. One thing, DON'T ignore the pre bake pie instructions. It will slide down. It's not ruined but the crust is just a little stubby 😅. But everything else is ahh mazing

[@virginiadavis6156]

❤wow I just made your recipe now. Friends are coming over tomorrow for lunch. ❤ it's busy baking now for 20mins. Everything was perfect. Let's see how it browns. The lemon custard was delicious 😋

[@rosemarycatalano2914]

[@DiaDia18]

Very nice recipie John! They looks amazing! You must to make video you recipie for "S' mores bars"!?! More S' more recipie please! Have a nice day and good week! 👍👏🍫🍫🍫

[@beckysummars2511]

Hey there this looks delicious but I have a question about baking the homemade crust. Is the temp 375 as you say in this video or 425 as typed on your printable recipe? I don't want to mess it up, thanks

[@queridasolar1711]

Hopefully this gets answered.

[@Lu_Lorero]

Maybe it starts as 425, then when he takes out the foil with grains he sets to 375 till its golden, I did another of his pie crusts that was like this, but I don't know if this one here is different

[@MarkBates566]

looooooovvvvvvvvveeeeeeee it

[@doloresolmedo8610]

why the lavender that is hanging on the wall is moving from minute 1:59 to 2:05???

[@tamevauch5948]

My favorite pie!!! So excited!! Thank you John!

[@maureenokeeffe2950]

love following his recipes darn good chef.

[@metgirl5429]

This is the best information I’ve ever seen and heard Off to the kitchen 💛🍋💛

[@sistitulasi]

Beautiful crust.

[@gloriacotten6183]

John, I am so delighted with you and this recipe! I gave up trying to make meringue years ago but after watching your video decided to give it one more try. This is my favorite pie and one of my daughters-in-law’s faves as well so giving up on it was a big deal. My pie is beautiful and I know it will taste delicious since I tasted the filling. Just in time for Christmas dessert! Thanks so much for sharing your expertise!!

[@am-js1ge]

🎉Happy Belated Birthday To You🎉Thank You My Bday Was Last Week I Really Wanted A Condensed Milk Icebox Lemon Pie, I Have Not Made One Like This In Years. You Made Me Remember How It Was Helping My Mother With Pecan Pies Stirring The Eggs In The Custard. I Hope You Have Happy Holidays.

[@mmakomanyatja5213]

[@Ruffina12345]

Absolutely amazing!!! Can’t wait to try. This is my favorite pie!!!

[@denisetarabori553]

Ohhhhhhh my! Lemon meringue and Coconut cream are my two favorite meringued pies! Do you have a recipe for just your flaky pie crust that you fold and block your crust like making your biscuits? ❤

[@usha9807]

Lemon meringue pie is my absolute favourite, but I usually buy it but I am so going to try this, it looks amazing!

[@Mikachan1018]

i love watching your channel on a cozy fall day looks good man

[@alethiamcknight3709]

My favorite pie! It looks sooooo delicious! Thank you for sharing another great recipe ❤

[@Malskivvy]

I still do my lemon meringue the old fashioned be-ro book way. Only uses 1 lemon, i might give it an extra squirt of juice because I like it tart but you couldn't beat it ❤

[@tomdececco2806]

Looks amazing - thanks for another great recipe

[@paolamurphy5726]

uhhh this looks nice!!! here in Chile we make Lemon Pie with a condensed milk filling! usually 1 tin of condensed milk with 4 yolks and you cook it in the oven... I am definitely going to try this recipe!

[@BrendaGardner-q2s]

I love when my meringue gloms on my beaters, too! 😂 Love your videos so much! Your recipes print so nicely from your website with a nice picture! ❤

[@clearfitness1954]

i have flour as substitute for cornstarch and it works.

[@ОляКаракуліна]

It's my favourite dessert

[@melaniexabregas9498]

Amazing!!!!! So so so good!!!! I've made the recipe from your last video on this - the BEST! Can I ask a question? In your 2019 lemon meringue pie video, you add the granulated sugar slowly into your meringue, but you also heat up a sugar mixture up to 240 and then also mix this into your meringue mixture with some vanilla extract. In this video you omit this step, would you say that's no longer necessary? Just stick to adding the granulated sugar?

[@RobertDeLuca-b8t]

I love lemon meringue pie

[@ericanelson1461]

Excellent job John.. It looks scrumptious.. I’m going to make 1 for thanksgiving.

[@shermoore1693]

Thanks for this and your other recipes, but I have a favour to ask: could you give both fahrenheit and Celsius temperatures? I'm anglo-italian. Thanks for adding grams to the weights. Thanks again .

[@leylakenani6310]

Till i saw this video i cant think anything but this pie 😅 i have no idea what it tastes like but must be fantastic. Anyway i gave it a try. Dough and the filling was fine but i overmixed the meringue, got my lesson. My question is when i bake it, after it cooled off, should i keep it in fridge or room temperature and should the plate be covered or not? @preppykitchen Thank you

[@babaracuseo6141]

How would I adjust this recipe for high altitude baking? 5:51

[@feliciakerschner8674]

I messed up my first attempt by not cooking the filling long enough for it to set but I do want to mention that the recipe calls for salt and he didn’t add that, I also doubled the cream of tartar and that’s the key to fluffier meringue

[@susansmyth8028]

Absolutely delisciousness 😋 in a pie 🍋🥧

[@مطبخريفابهاريف]

مره جميله شكرا 🌸

[@bionda470]

I have made your old recipe and it was delish!

[@cheyannehall2130]

Oh my goodness! You got me in trouble with this one!!🤤🤤

[@CarmenGarcía-l4w]

My favorite dessert 😋

[@v66catta84]

One of my favourite desserts! 🤤🤤

[@nilabakery]

I can't wait to try making this dessert for myself! Thanks for sharing such an amazing recipe with us 🤌🤗🧡

[@Xxxxxrrr6464]

Big thanks

[@swapnanilkar4786]

Really amazing, yummy n delicious. 🙂😋.

[@iforgotwhatiwasdoin]

Hey John, I followed your recipe to a T, but it still ended up too runny. Would adding a tiny bit of gelatin help with this?

[@JessicaM-gj8ve]

My all time favorite pie ❤❤ ingredients are now on my shopping list for next week 🤤

[@nikkilovesrocks]

Lol @3:58 😂What are you grabbing or petting??? 😹

[@somiasKitchenlife3387]

Wow this is amazing and wonderful

[@lachauntiswashington231]

that looks delicious. I usually don't eat pies besides sweet potato pie, but I've tried a lemon square so if this is similar I would love to try it.😋💛

[@malicor.8247]

Thank you for this video ❤

[@leewebbstock8300]

Hi John, looks AMAZING!!! Tell me i have noticed you don't use any condensmilk in your filling, can you tell me why?

[@frankyw8803]

Perfect .

[@ewidmer1]

Should you refrigerate overnight ?

[@MiliFayArt]

Question: I’m nervous about adding a frozen crust in a ceramic dish to a hot oven - my mind is telling me the dish will crack or explode. What am I missing? Also, is the pie crust the same as the one for the quiche? (Which was delicious, but I did not freeze the crust pre baking). Thanks for this channel. 💕

[@maryamzizi13]

Great video John😊😊

[@edithharmer1326]

Delicious! Great tutorial! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent! Greetings from Edith, a happy Subscriber

[@DorrisDiaz]

@Preppykitchen - if you use pre-made lemon curd which has been in the fridge, should you warm it before putting it on the tart case (sorry, pie shell 😉) ?

[@SweetestIRAQIRose]

I absolutely LOVE the taste of the lemon curd! I don’t mind meringue, but I would like something with cream cheese to top it off instead. Does anyone have a recipe for a cream / cream cheese topping instead? Thanks so much

[@Swissmiss0401]

Hi 😃thank you so much for this videos you are a delight to watch. I have a question I would like to make a Limoncello meringue pie version of this. Do you have any advice how I can adjust your recipe without ruining it lol. I’m a good cook, but I have no experience in baking and I tend to adjust recipes and that’s why I’m not a good baker. I would love your advice. I appreciate it, by the way, I love all your tips you give as well along the way with some of the mishaps that’s very helpful. Best wishes , Mireille

[@alexandrahumbert7507]

Can you do a bob brownie recipe ? love your videos!

[@TheAmazingLemonPie]

Omaaagaaa, I need this pie!

[@chanpower4139]

When I made mine, I followed the same way, but mine came out a more darker green color. It tasted good, but it was also a little bit liquidy too.

[@grant008]

What would I be able to use as an alternative to corn starch? Tapioca starch?

[@CookandtravelwithDenisa]

It looks really good 👍🏼
