Lemonade concentrate and lemon juice give this special pie an excellent citrus flavor. I also like to add some lemon zest on top of the meringue. —Kay Seiler, Grennville, Ohio

Lemonade Meringue Pie Recipe

Prep: 30 min. Bake: 15 min. + chilling

Yield: 8 Servings

30 15 45

Ingredients

Pastry for single-crust pie (9 inches)
3 eggs, separated
1-1/4 cups 2% milk
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
1 package (4.6 ounces) cook-and-serve vanilla pudding mix
1/3 cup thawed lemonade concentrate
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
6 tablespoons sugar

Directions

Line a 9-in. pie plate with pastry; trim and flute edges. Line unpricked pastry with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Bake at 450° for 8 minutes. Remove foil; bake 5-7 minutes longer or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.
Place egg whites in a large bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, combine the milk, sour cream and pudding mix until smooth. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat; cook and stir 2 minutes longer.
Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot mixture into egg yolks; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. Gently stir in lemonade concentrate; keep warm.
Add lemon juice and cream of tartar to egg whites; beat on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, on high until stiff glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved.
Pour warm filling into pastry shell. Spread meringue evenly over filling, sealing edges to crust.
Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until the meringue is golden brown. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving. Store leftovers in the refrigerator. Yield: 8 servings.

Does anyone know which issue of Taste of Home this recipe came from? It had this pie and the slice 'n bake lemon gems on the cover and was titled "simply mouth-watering". I'd like to order a copy of the back issue. Thanks!
