My mother often made this 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 top off any meal. —Jeannie Fritson, Kearney, Nebraska

I love lemon so I had to make it. I had another call for my time on my "pie" afternoon. To speed up the recipe I used 4 eggs but did not separate them, just beat to pale yellow. I also used Sour cream instead of milk. YUMM!! This recipe is in my special folder of "Must Make Again Recipes."

Very easy, economical and citrus-y. I substituted lime for the lemon. The filling separates into 2 layers, an upper fluffy layer and a lower custardy layer. You can see this slightly in the photo. I cut the sugar in 1/2 and it was still good.

I made this pie for my niece's birthday as an extra dessert and everyone who had a slice loved it. I really enjoyed the flavour. Would make again and again. I love lemon

I made this pie over the weekend, it was super easy, with a wonderful aroma and it was a sight to see coming out of the oven. My family loved it! I have added this to my pie collection! Thanks..

This is almost the same recipe my Grandmother made. She was from southern Virginia and they called it Lemon Meringue. It is my favorite, regardless of what it is called!

This pie was fantastic! I made it for a bible study that meets at our house and had rave reviews! Even my husband who isn't a big fan of lemon liked it! We served it with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
