Lemon Pie

A yummy lemon pie recipe we found in Felicity's cowboy cookbook! I've made it twice already and it's a hit here in my house!

Lemon Pie

3 eggs, separated
2 tablespoons water
3/4 cup sugar, divided
Juice of 1 lemon
1/3 teaspoon cream of tarter
1 baked 9 inch pie crust

Cook egg yolks, water, 1/2 cup sugar, and lemon juice over medium heat. Stir until thick, and set aside to cool. Beat egg whites 1/4 cup sugar, and cream of tarter until stiff peaks form, then fold into the first mixture. Pour into a baked pie shell and brown slightly under broiler.

*We use Grandma Seppala's pie dough recipe for the crust*
