Lemon Curd And Raspberry Swirl Pie Recipes

LEMON CURD AND RASPBERRY SWIRL PIE

Steps:

• 1. If you are using frozen berries you need to defrost them and let them drain. In a small sauce pan add water, juice, sugar and corn starch whisk until corn starch is dissolved. Turn on heat to medium and cook until mixture starts to thicken. When it thickens up turn off heat and add jello and whisk until dissolved. Add fresh or frozen berries to the mixture.
• 2. Have your pie shell ready and lemon curd ready. With a soup ladle or a measuring cup add a layer of lemon custard than some of the berry mixture. Keep doing this until all the ingredients are done. At this point you need to put the pie in the fridge and let it chill for at least 4 hours or over night.
• 3. You can substitute raspberries for strawberries or even cherries will be good as well. You can also use a Grahm cracker crust if you prefer. I like to top my pie with some whipped topping.

RASPBERRY LEMON MERINGUE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Press pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan. Brush crust with enough egg white to coat with a thin layer.
• Cook in the preheated oven until golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove crust from oven and cool. Decrease oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cook and stir raspberries in a saucepan over medium heat until raspberries start to break down, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir 1 tablespoon cornstarch into raspberries until cornstarch is dissolved and mixture is thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Spoon raspberry mixture into pie crust.
• Combine 1 cup white sugar and 1/4 cup cornstarch in a saucepan; gradually stir in water and 1/2 cup lemon juice until smooth. Stir egg yolks into sugar mixture; bring to a boil. Cook sugar-egg mixture at a boil, stirring constantly, until smooth, about 1 minute. Remove saucepan from heat. Stir lemon pulp, remaining 1/4 cup lemon juice, and butter into sugar-egg mixture; pour over raspberry mixture.
• Beat 3 egg whites in a small bowl using an electric mixer on high speed until foamy. Gradually beat 1/3 cup white sugar into egg whites until stiff peaks form. Spread egg white mixture over lemon filling, completely sealing egg mixture onto edges of crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven until meringue is golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool pie to room temperature on a wire rack, about 30 minutes. Refrigerate pie until completely chilled, about 3 hours.
