MOM'S LEMON PUCKER PIE
Mom always said, "When life hands you lemons...bake a lemon pie!" All through our life each of us kids had a special recipe we would ask our mom to make for us. Lemon Pie was my brother's favorite request and as far as he was concerned, the 'tarter' it was, the more he liked it, hence, "pucker pie." Mom had the ability...

Steps:

Stir ½ cup of the hot mixture into the beaten yolks then stir the yolk mixture back into the hot mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter. Add lemon peel and juice and stir until smooth. Cool and pour into baked pie shell.

Bake in a slow oven (325F) 10 minutes, or, until delicately browned. Cool.
MY MOM'S LEMON MERINGUE PIE
This is my mother's lemon meringue pie recipe and it is one of my all time favorite desserts. You can add a bit more lemon zest if you want it to be more tart! Don't let pie cool before putting on meringue.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Press pie crust into a pie plate.
- Mix sweetened condensed milk, egg yolks, lemon juice, and lemon zest together in a bowl; pour into pie crust.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
- Five minutes before pie is done, beat egg whites and cream of tartar together in a bowl using an electric mixer on high speed until foamy. Slowly add sugar to egg white mixture and continue beating until meringue forms stiff peaks, about 5 minutes.
- Remove pie from oven and increase temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread meringue onto warm pie, making sure meringue goes all the way to the edges creating a seal. Using the back of a spoon, dab the meringue and pull up, creating peaks across the pie.
- Bake in the oven for 15 minutes. Let cool to room temperature for 1 hour and store in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- 1. Thaw 2 pre-made 9" deep dish pie shells (or you can make your own crusts) and using a fork prick the shell all around, so the crust doesn't puff up during the baking time.
- 2. Bake the pie shells in a pre-heated 400° oven for 10-12 minutes until lightly browned; set aside to cool.
- 3. Divide the egg yolks and reserve the whites for the meringue, making sure there is NO egg yolk in the whites. I remove the white membrane from the reserved egg whites also. Keep the egg white at room temperature.
- 4. In a microwaveable safe glass bowl, combine the pudding mix, sugar, whipped egg yolks, 1/3 cup of lemon juice, and 2/3 cup of the water. Whisk the ingredients until all is combined.
- 5. Add the remaining 5 cups of water.
- 6. Place in the microwave on full power and cook (STIRRING EVERY 3 MINUTES) for about 16-18 minutes. Note: If you use hot water it would be less cooking time. I use cold because that's the way mom wanted it done.
- 7. The pudding will be semi-thick. The pudding will thicken more as it cools.
- 8. Fill each of the pre-baked pie crusts and set aside while you make the meringue.
- 9. In a large bowl, add the reserved egg whites and beat on high just until it starts to get foamy.
- 10. Add 1 Tbsp of the sugar at a time, beating between each addition, until all the sugar is used.
- 11. Continue to beat on high until stiff peaks form in the egg whites.
- 12. Spoon half of the firm meringue onto each pie and spread out to seal the edge of the pie.
- 13. Using your spatula or spoon, tap the top of the meringue to lift up peaks on the pie.
- 14. Bake the pie on the center oven rack for 10-12 minutes @ 350F until the meringue is a golden brown.
- 15. Note: It's best if you chill this pie before cutting into it. This meringue does weep but mom never cared because the pies never lasted that long anyway... LOL.
MOM'S LEMON MERINGE PIE
I don't know when or how Mom got this recipe but it was the one she used since the 1950's. She made it from scratch for holidays and it was always just wonderful.

Steps:
- 1. TO MAKE FILLING: Mix sugar, salt, cornstarch. Add water and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat stirring with a whisk until thick and clear.
- 2. Place egg yolks in a small bowl and very gradually whisk in 1/2 cup of hot sugar mixture. Go slowly so yolks do not cook. Then slowly whisk egg yolk mixture back into remaining sugar mixture. Bring to a boil and continue to cook while stirring constantly until thick. Remove from heat. Add butter and cool a bit. Pour into pie shell.
- 3. TO MAKE MERINGUE: With mixer beat egg whites until frothy; gradually add sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Add vanilla. Spoon on top of lemon pie filling, making peaks if you like and spreading to crust edge to seal filling in. Bake at 325 degrees for 15 to 18 minutes, until meringue is nicely browned.
- 4. NOTE: Depending on the color you like for the filling you may add a bit of yellow food coloring along with the vanilla.

MOM'S LEMON MERINGUE PIE
This is my late mother-in-law's recipe. My husband now makes it for our family and friends. He even entered it in a local pie contest and won a blue ribbon! We love the tart, lemon flavor! If you can, make it the day before serving since the taste actually improves after a day. Note: This recipe uses eggs which have not been fully cooked. Please be sure of your egg source and keep the pie refrigerated.

MOM'S LEMON CUSTARD PIE
My mother often made this lemon pie back when we were growing up. You might say it's stood the test of time because today it's still my 75-year-old brother's favorite! The beaten egg whites give it a delicate texture and make this custard pie quite unique! It's a great way to finish off any meal. -Jeannie Fritson, Kearney, Nebraska
