Lemon Meringue Pie

October 30th, 2009

I have an insatiable craving for dessert when the weather turns brisk and it’s certainly no coincidence that my last two food posts have revolved around my favorite meal (here and here).  This past weekend I convinced my mom to bake a pie with me so that she could pass along some of her secrets for consistently flaky crusts and excellent fillings.  I would never go as far to say that pumpkin is an overrated fall flavor, but there’s something unexpected about a lemon meringue pie that’s so perfect in October.

Do you have a dessert you look forward to most during the holiday season?

    Just browsing some posts that I’ve missed while I’ve been away. But I had to stop at the Lemon Meringue Pie post to comment! Looks so delish!! I have to make a couple desserts for Thanksgiving this year and I might have to do a meringue. I’ve never done one before but it’s unexpected for Thanksgiving, so I think it could be a big hit. That, and my pumpkin pie:)

    Looks delicious. This past summer my mom taught me her lemon meringue pie also. It would be totally unexpected to have in Fall, but I like your thinking…
