The PERFECT Lemon Meringue Pie Recipe

Lemon Meringue Pie is the perfect dessert recipe for any season, with zesty and citrusy lemon curd and a fluffy layer of meringue inside a flaky pie crust. Make this lemon pie with a buttery homemade pie crust or use store-bought if you are short on time. The lemon curd is rich and custardy with refreshing and bold lemon flavor from freshly squeezed lemon juice and zippy lemon zest. Each layer is satisfying to make, and you’ll love the marshmallowy meringue weather you

[@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. 👍

[@frankyw8803]

Perfect .

[@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.

[@user-dr1nt3nl3w]

It's my favourite dessert

[@Lichan525]

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

[@MarkBates566]

looooooovvvvvvvvveeeeeeee it

[@jw77019]

As a beginning cook, overly cautious about curdling egg yolks, I made this pie and didn’t bring it back to a boil with the egg yolks. There is an enzyme in the egg yolks that breaks down the thickening properties if it’s not brought up to a certain temperature. The result is a way-too-thin lemon filling. The cornstarch prevents the eggs from curdling, making it safe to bring up to the point when the filling boils. It actually kind of burps because it’s too thick to boil. It was years later when I learned from Shirley Corriher’s book what happened.

[@normanbell-br7nf]

looks good

[@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 😋

[@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.

[@cocoblk4698]

Thank you kind sir 😘

[@edithharmer1326]

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

[@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

[@aspencroft8102]

Yummieeee

[@EmerMcLaughlin]

Jesus it looks Devine! Dear God help me!!!

[@TheAmazingLemonPie]

Omaaagaaa, I need this pie!

[@crystalpittman2173]

i have flour as substitute for cornstarch and it works.

[@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!!

[@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 .

[@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? ❤

[@leewebbstock8300]

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

[@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

[@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?

[@alexandrahumbert7507]

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

[@chimbukachibangulula5635]

I love your shirts 😊

[@anncawthon9183]

What if you fill the entire pie shell with ceramic pie weights? Does that do as good a job of supporting the sides and preventing their shrinking? John, you are a presence at many of our dinner parties-- in friends' homes too. Thank you for improving our baking.

[@amylandry4108]

😅H. M😮. D😍G !!! Looks so good!!

[@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!

[@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

[@MeNormalDefMe]

You should try making "Indiánky" In Czechia it's well praised desert with lots of people loving it, but the recipe is very tricky.

[@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

[@dougdougan577]

John , I was always taught to make the filling and add the lemon juice AFTER the cornstarch has fully thickened . I was told the lemon juice could inhibit the thickening power of the starch if put in earlier …/. Thoughts ?

[@darlenealvarado2875]

Thank you for sharing John this Lemon Meringue Pie made my mouth water 💦 ...👍😋

[@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 😉) ?

[@m.a.p.g.]

It was Thanksgiving weekend in Canada,. Would you please share your ideas for leftover turkey.

[@mennanaelmenssi5286]

Hoi preppy, ilove your recipes,I want to make this cake don’t you have to heat the egg whites?

[@grant008]

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

[@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.

[@tomo.3678]

Is there such a thing as making a lime meringue pie? 🥧😊

[@marksieber4626]

My favorite. At the end of the video I thought I heard a choir of angels hitting a note all together!

[@nikkilovesrocks]

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