- This zingy lemon meringue pie rests in a crisp and flakey homemade butter crust and is topped with a mound of light as air Italian meringue making for an easy to make but very special treat!
Full Recipe: preppykitchen.com/lemon-merin...
This pie is a lemon-lover’s dream come true! Tons of zing and a perfect balance of sweetness and textures in each bite. I loved this recipe with a homemade butter crust but you can make a crushed cookie or nut crust if desired.

John, I had 2 heart attacks 13 days ago, 2 stents put in. Great doctors here in Los Angeles. Calling the ambulance saved my life. I'm SO THANKFUL for a 2nd chance at life. And am happy to come here bc you always make me smile and I need some happy right now:) This pie looks very delicious.
@Michael Armenta Sr. thank you very much. Slowly healing. Glad to be alive:)
Here are a few tips if you guys wanna make dis
If you don’t have a food processor, you can totally use a kitchen aid stand mixer, works fine
Don’t have vodka? Use some more water/butter
Don’t have that pie crust bowl? I used a cupcake tray to make mini pies and they turned out just fine
DO NOT put the amount of sugar that John puts in the meringue. It will make it WAY TOO SWEET (if u
like it it very sweet then sure use that much but if it’s too sweet just remember it was ur fault) Use about 3/4 of a cup in the meringue because you will add another cup later in with the syrup.
If u don’t have a thermometer then don’t worry! Just keep it on the heat for about 1-2minutes after it starts boiling and the bubbles are as big as Johns
Rizzy Playzz thank you ❤️

OMG TYSM
When I was working in a bakery we used to "paint" our dessert pie shells with hot, strained apricot jam, or current jelly depending on the filling and letting it cool before filling. Needless to say, this trick was only for filled pies, not for baked fruit pies. It acts as a barrier and helps keep your crust nice and crisp.
I used to do this as well , when i used to work in a bakery
Thanks for the tip🌻
I find that if you dry mix the sugar and cornstarch first, it helps with having no
lumps of cornstarch.
Oh, thanks!
Dry mixing the sugar and cornstarch is best. Second best (if you forget and add the lemon juice to the sugar before adding the cornstarch) is adding a small amount of the lemon juice to the cornstarch in a small bowl first. This will allow you to dissolve the cornstarch without having to search for lumps. Then add it into the pot.
Thank you!
YOOOOOO!!! Preppy!! I just made this pie with my Meyer lemon tree that we planted 2 years ago. We had 5 lemons come out this year. Used them to make this pie. Oh my GOODNESS!!! It was the best lemon meringue pie I have ever eaten and made. Great job my brother. Y’all this recipe is legit!!!!
Made two of these pies for Easter. They were a hit! Thank you John. My boyfriend's grandma was so impressed she gave me some of her and her mom's pie recipes. You gave me a billion bonus points. Thanks John! 💖 🥧
thats sooo cute
I’m literally hoping for this same exact situation to play out for me this weekend! Easter is in two days and I’m making this pie (it’s my boyfriend’s Mina’s favorite kind of pie)… they give me recipes all the time but maybe something new will come up!! 🤞
I made this pie two days in a row!! It went that fast. You have such a clear and informational way of explaining the process. Thank you for being such a joy!
I just made it and my husband is eating the leftover curd by spoon. That's how delicious it is. Thank you and much love from the Netherlands ❤️
I did too...too good to waste
I did also eat every last drop

Looks delic! My mom's fav. When she was going through chemo, she lost her tastebuds but for some reason she could taste lemon meringue. It was the one thing that made her day and we made sure she had it every day. FYI-shes been in remission for a very long time but still LOVES this pie!
Nobody tells the cups and grams thank you for that 😊

Joy of Baking does, too!
Agree!!!😎
Yeah usually they tell you to go to their website for the full recipe...I love John because he's real ,funny as hell, relatable and well....he admits to eating copious amounts of swiss meringue buttercream frosting before frosting anything...thats my kryptonite ....buttercream fluffy buttery and vanilla deliciousness...lol
@@leonardopistolato9775 ...I WAS about to say!!!
My third pie. Wow. Started it Friday afternoon, the crust and filling. Chilled it overnight. Made the meringue Saturday. And the finished pie was amazing! Pumpkin pie is on tap for Christmas dinner!
I made this pie yesterday and it was the best I’d ever made. Let the curd chill over six hours then added the Italian meringue. Makes a lot of meringue and it was so silky. Thanks for the great recipe!
My mom used to make a Lemon Meringue Pie! I haven't had one since she passed away. I will have to try making one myself. I've never made one before. I guess there's a first time for everything!!!! Thanks, John!!!
Boy oh boy this brought back memories of my Mom's Lemon Meringue Pie, which I absolutely loved!! This is a really great summer treat. Great video. Thanks for the memories!
I'd like to thank you for showing how to make the lemon filling, something I have not been successful at. It's why I always used canned filling, which is very good by the way. I heat the filling in the microwave before adding to the cooked shell. I'll be trying this method to make the filling now that I've seen the video. Thank you for making the vid!
I've tried tons of preppy kitchen's recipes and each one is an absolute hit. this lemon meringue pie is no exception! thank you king!
I’m the pastie queen in my family. Pie crust used to terrify me. Every fall my mom and I would get together on a weekend and make pasties for the winter. She would do the crust (pie crust) I would do the filling. We made a great team until 2004. She was diagnosed with lung cancer and was on oxygen. She still wanted to do our pastie weekend. She could on,y walk me through it. Little did I know she would be giving me the greatest gift. I was thrown into crust making. The first few were a disaster. But by the end of the weekend I was hooked. Now I love making pies. Up until last weekend I had never made a lemon meringue pie in my life. Like when mom showed me the first one was a disaster…it was soup. Second one was a little better…but I had hives and cold sores…apparently I’m a little allergic….but that didn’t stop me. Four days later, armed with Benadryl, my third lemon meringue pie was near perfection. But now I want different crusts. I like your butter vodka crust. My pastie crusts have vinegar in the which makes them flakey. For this last lemon meringue pie I put lemon extract in the crust. But I wonder how great it would be if you replaced the vodka in the crust with Italian lemon cello? I’m going to make one for Mother’s Day and share it with my favorite aunt who is Italian (she married into our family which is mostly German…but we love her cooking), I will let you know.
I love your videos too by the way.❤️
I just love watching you. You actually broke a yolk! I have never seen a profesional or any youtube person break a yolk. Thanks for showing us you mess up too. Makes me feel like I'm not such an idiot sometimes! I also love it when you lick the spatula!
I made this pie and this was the first pie I have ever enjoyed! It was easy to make and delicious! I would definitely recommend this recipe and make against! 🍋 😊
I made it for my daughter's birthday. She's a pie girl. It came out perfectly. Thank you so much! It was the BEST lemon meringue pie that I've ever had in my LIFE.
Made this yesterday for Mother's Day. Absolutely fabulous! Another spot-on receipe from Preppy Kitchen! Thanks so much. Your recipes always so reliable. Definitely 5 stars!!
Such a perfect summer recipe! Will definitely have to make this!!!
All your recent recipes are really hitting the spot for me! Can't wait to recreate
Where has this Italian style of Meringue recipe been all these years of my pie making. Boy is this the Best Meringue recipe I have ever had the pleasure of making and my family just loves it. I also recently purchased a kitchen torch for my Crème Brulee so this goes Great with my new Meringue recipe. Thank You very much CHEF.
My grandma made lemon meringue pie for me at holidays because I don't like pumpkin or pecan pie. Every time I make it, I am reminded of her. Thanks for the great tutorial.
My Mom’s favorite ~ will make this in memory of her for her birthday 🎂 October 9th .
OMG! John, I did it. I made my first lemon meringue pie. Well, actually I have not made the meringue yet because I'm following your instructions and will make it and add to the pie tomorrow. The filling is absolutely delicious. It is tangy and sweet but not too but not too much of either. It's perfect. THANK YOU for sharing yet again another delicious masterpiece! I'm going to comment and rate this delicious pie on your website. 🥰
Me too
Congrats!
how.. It didnt wanna thicken up for mine, i used 4 tablespoons and i tried to fix it with like 5 more tablespoons. I think it's because he doesnt exactly measure his ingredients
4 tablespoons of cornstarch i mean
@@optimistic4351 50 grams of cornstarch.
What a lucky day it was for me when I found John and his youtube videos! This guy is hilarious, genuine and makes the best desserts ever! Thanks John!
This is by far the best lemon meringue pie recipe I have found
Who noticed that he can actually mention the pie crust recipe in he's sleep? That's amazing!!
Me: I should start a diet
John *shares a lemon pie recipe
I don’t think it’s that unhealthy ^0^
@@oh-ohstinky5819 depends on how much you eat
Dieting's for quitters
Same bro, this guy always gives me reasons to cheat on the diet! hahah
No more diet for you 😈
I just made this yesterday and it really is the best perfect and easy to follow lemon pie recipe out there. First attempt at it and it came out
perfect? thank you so much. I will definitely be making this again!!!
I've always been intimidated by lemon meringue pie, but it's my brother's favorite. I made your recipe yesterday from your blog and it came out beautifully...just now watching you make it would've given me more confidence when I was making it, but next time I won't feel so scared! I never made Italian meringue before, everyone loved it! Thank you!
That looks aaaamazing! Love your videos! You obviously love what you are doing...makes it much more enjoyable to watch!!
I just discovered your channel and I love everything about it!
You are just Amazing do not stop what you are doing PLEASE! Such a Blessing for all of us for you to share your gift!
That’s the first video I watch of you & I feel like you’re such a wholesome person & this recipe looks so delicious
Made this for my sons bday last week and the whole family loved it. Thank you for sharing this great recipe!
Between this channel and the joy of baking channel, I’m going to gain so much weight! Love them both!
Just made it today and I must say, it is a great lemon pie ! It holds its shape very well and taste really good. Thank you for the recipe, I sure will make it again in the future.
thank you! for not having a bunch of quick shots, close ups, just nice and easy
This mans videos are always such good quality. He speaks so beautifully. I love the way he throws in jokes and comes across as a regular nice guy xx
I tried your chocolate mud pie yesterday and it was amazing 😍 new subscriber and I'm totally in love with your videos and personality ❤❤❤ love from Lebanon.
So happy you liked it.
I appreciate so much the fact that you give it also in grams !!! Thank you !
I love the cup measurements AND the scaling of the recipe. Possible for all bakers and baker enthusiasts
John, i crack my eggs while theyre still cold. I think that helps with the separation. Cover and let come to room temp.
Omg my favorite besides key lime pie! That looks delicious! 😋
You're always on point with your videos!! I've never had a mishap with any of your recipes, thank you so much for sharing your gift with us ❤
That looks AMAZING, from start to finish! I’m going to try it in a couple of weeks and will let you know how it went!
I'm never gonna end up making it I'm just watching cause i love his presentation so much GOD
LOL
Hey John, it’s easier to separate eggs when cold. If they are warm or room temperature they yolks break easier! I learned the hard way making macarons.
Yes but the whites dnt turn good for the merenge
I'm a lemon fiend...and this filling is the BEST!!! I probably put a little extra zest, but it was so perfect. I used it in both a full sized pie, which sliced beautifully, as well as in individual tarts. Perfect silky texture, epic lemon flavor!❤❤❤
Hi Sunny, I'm so pleased you liked the pie!!!!
Thanks so much for this video and recipe. Its my Dad's (78) favourite cake and I made for him for Easter. He was blown away!
I made the pie yesterday and I’m so proud ! It tasted so good 🤤 but I missed up the meringue... My sugar became caramel at 180 degrees.
Anyway, thanks for sharing this recipe.
Btw : I’m French 🇫🇷
idk why but i feel he's the Bob Ross of baking and cooking he's just always so positive
Mafe Gomez idk why I see this comment everywhere
You don’t know how great you are to watch during this quarantine time. So encouraging and relaxing. I’m binge watching your videos, thanx for a breath of fresh air! And, LOVE your recipes. ⚡️💖⚡️
Beautiful job. I FAVORITE dessert of all time. Thank you.
Ganhou mais uma inscrita 😃👏👏👏
This is one of my favorite desserts, it hurts that in my country (Venezuela) is so difficult to prepare, the ingredients are very expensive for the common population, you are blessed,thanks for sharing your delicius recipes.:)
i was just thinking the same !!!
That's so much for all of the help you give us
I made your lemon pie today it’s amazing!!! Thank you! I love your videos and you are a great teacher!!!
This lemon curd is the best I’ve ever tried, I use less butter at the end though
0:10 "It comes together in a snap"
Me- Thanos is that you......
Right - every video he says that...must be different definitions of 'snap'
It's the most incredible lemon pie I ever tasted! But your cookies were great too! Thank you
Made this yesterday for a dinner party. It was gorgeous and a huge success.
the way he cut the lemon give me anxiety somehow
Me too
I feel that way watching him separate the egg yolks...I’ve seen a couple of his videos now and he always breaks one yolk by doing it with his hands like that. 😖
Ahhhh same
This comment made me get anxiety from watching him cut the lemons
oh yeah Im hearing you i would have no finger tips left :-)
Hi, i just made this this afternoon! It worked really well, this is my 2nd time making lemon meringue but your recipe is much better than the one i used before. Can i ask, how would you tone down the lemonyness in the curd? My mum has sensitive teeth so she doesnt like how potent it turned out. Would i add more water/ less lemon juice? Would that affect the firmness of the curd? Please let me know, thank you!
Hi Nadia, I know I'm a little late but you could try a mixture of different citrus fruits. Maybe try 3/4 lemon and 1/4 lime or orange.
Add less lemon zest.
Made this recipe last weekend and OMG! It was sooo good! Thank u thank u so much! Everyone in my family enjoyed it 🥰🥰
I had an issue with someone about lemons. They are not all the same. I have tons of lemon trees on my orchard in the beautiful island of Sicily. If you have ever had the lemon we call cedro, you will never forget it. Sweet and tart at the same time. Ciao Bello.
Thanks to this recipe I now have the best lemon meringue pie in my family! ...sorry Grandma.
John, it's always a pleasure to learn and be entertained all at the same time!! Recipe came out great!! As always! Thank you so much :) If I may share a tip, from a clumsy/messy baker to another ... When it's one of those days, I crack my egg in a third bowl without even bothering to separate it with the shell. That's usually the step where I break the yolk if I'm especially "thumbsy" that day :) Then I just pick up the yolk with my hands, dump it in it's bowl and do the same with the white. Cheers my friend!
I've made this 3 times, it's turned out amazing every time
yum! One of my favs! Next up- Key Lime ... pleeeaaase ;)
Is the lemon filling tangy and sour instead of just sweet, bc that would pair really well with the sweet meringue
Hence ...the ...recipe.....lemon.....tart and sweet and lemony and the meringue lightly sweet clouds gently napping atop the thick smooth yellow sweet tart citrus curd....lemon zest with lemon oils and a nice tid bit bite ...nomnom.
@@tamarakennedy4976 Lol
Just made this and it’s absolutely delicious. Thanks!
It came out delicious. The lemon curd at its perfect thickness.I used lemons from our own garden, the intense aroma was beautiful The dough came up to be alittle scarce for my " molde" but I spread it a little more. We added some Italian meringue made with the two egg whites that were not used. Thank you from Buenos Aires.
He’s like the Harry Potter of the culinary world! His food looks magically delicious.🤓💫⚡️
I feel like he is a Hermione
"This looks fine considering its going to get all covered up"😂😂
That's what I tell myself about my gut 😂
Made the lemon part yesterday and the meringue today. I used a store bought Graham cracker crust so it's a small pie but the meringue made so much it's literally 4 times taller than the lemon part 😂😂😂 I sampled the filling and meringue while making it and both were delicious. I cannot wait to eat this tonight!!! I wish I could include a photo here. It's literally the tallest lemon meringue pie ever 😂😂😂
Love his energy. ☺️✨Pie looks awesome!
Don't you have to bake it once you top it with meringue to cook the meringue?
No, because it's an Italian meringue, where the egg whites are cooked by the hot sugar syrup and stabilized with the acid (cream of tartar)
To make a meringue pie, always make sure your filling is very hot. To do this, heat the filling it in a bowl in the microwave to get it hot. Make sure your meringue is ready when you pour the hot filling in the cooked shell. The hot filling will prevent the meringue from weeping and turning to water beneath it. Spread the meringue all the way to the edges. Make sure it touches the edges or you will end up with a hockey puck in the center of your pie. In an oven set to 325, place the pie and watch it. Shoot for 20 minutes to brown your meringue and COOK it! I'm 70 years old now, and this is how my mother taught me to make a meringue pie. I guess this goes back maybe 100 years, and it always ends in success.
Thank you for thr tip!
The best! Your recipies are always accurate! Thanks for sharing ❤️.
You looks so happy while baking.........baking is really ur passion
At least he's honest about the eggs he even cursed lol that was hilarious!😂😂😂
Remember that International Pi Day is 22nd of July! You gotta do a special pie for that day!
i just learned what this day was. to pass it on: this is Pi approximation day, because the fraction 22/7 is a close approximation to Pi that was commonly used.
I thought pi pie day was on the 14th of March?
Oh nvm. 22 over 7. Lmfao I'm not complaining. Two international pi pie days are better than 1
@@90sbabe47 ah, but March 14 is National Pi Day, because most of the world writes the date dd/mm, very few countries write it mm/dd like we do here in the states. I point it out because a) he's been making an effort to be more international with his measurements and b) my birthday is July 22nd.
@@peshgirl ahhh. I gotcha now. I always found it funny how some countrys go mm/dd/yy, but here in Australia we go dd/mm/yy. Other than that pie is great and we all need an excuse to eat some lmfao.
And happy birthday for the 22nd :)
omg i love your teaching THANK YOU and you and your family be safe .
I made this and my family devoured it within a day. Next time I am making 2 pies! Also the filling had so much flavor, nice and zingy! Tastes amazing with the Italian meringue on top (I couldn't stop eating the left over meringue in the bowl lol)
Thank you so much for this recipe! I tried Gordon Ramsay's version a night ago and it completely failed. I’m definitely going to try this
If you look in all his thumbnail pictures, he's always wear a checkered shirt😂
Thank you for explaining the reason behind using cream of tartar, that was something I didn't know previously.
That is a gorgeous looking lemon meringue pie John!
Thank you! (That deep dish crust looks amazing!)
Danielle: splash if vanilla
Me: Adds in Half The Bottle Of Vanilla... oops 🤷♀️
Rebecca Danielle? Bruhhhh
Every time John uses a knife on something he is holding my worry level spikes. If he's talking at the same time it rises off the chart. It's not that I think he is clumsy...let's just say there are an awful lot of oops moments in his delightful videos.
He hasn’t cut himself yet on camera. But yes, he’s surprisingly clumsy, which adds to his charm. One of these days that man is going to slip on a puddle and hurt himself...
Best pie ever! Only thing I do differently is add two egg whites for the meringue, and I strain the lemon curd like you do for your lemon tart. Absolutely fabulous recipe! Thank you for sharing this with us brother.
Omg, I love lemon anything. Thanks for sharing.
I thought Keanu Reeves was my man crush. I was wrong. Is you and those amazing recipes. Thanks for this
