Como fazer Depression Lemon Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the crust: Use your favorite pre-made pie crust or prepare one from scratch.
  3. In a medium bowl, break 1 ½ cups of crustless bread (about 4-5 slices) into small pieces.
  4. Add ½ cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter to the bread crumbs and stir to combine.
  5. Pour 1 cup of boiling water over the bread mixture. Let stand for 10 minutes to soften.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together ½ cup granulated sugar and ¼ cup cornstarch until well combined.
  7. Whisk in 2 large egg yolks, then stir in the juice and zest of 2 large lemons.
  8. Pour the lemon mixture over the bread mixture and stir until creamy and well combined.
  9. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
  10. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set.
  11. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (160°C).
  12. Make the meringue: In a clean, dry bowl, beat 2 large egg whites until soft peaks form.
  13. Gradually add 4 tablespoons of granulated sugar, beating until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  14. Spread the meringue evenly over the hot pie filling, sealing the edges to the crust.
  15. Bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the meringue is lightly browned.
  16. Let the pie cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
