SODA CRACKER PIE
Southerners can whip up something special from thin air, and this pretty little pie pie is here to prove it. The Soda Cracker Pie comes from a long line of desperation pies, also known as "make-do pies," that were designed to cope with dwindling supplies and limited ingredients. You know them, you love them: Chess Pie, Southern Buttermilk Pie, Old-Fashioned Shoofly Pie, and Soda Cracker Pie. They first gained popularity during the Depression and World War II, but they've graced our tables ever since. This Soda Cracker Pie is built on a base of whipped egg whites and baking powder. Since this mixture forms the foundation of the pie and will give it much of its height, it's important to whip your egg whites until they reach completely stiff peaks. Then gradually beat in the sugar and fold in the secret ingredients: crushed crackers, nuts (we favor pecans, but you can use any nuts you have on hand), and a splash of vanilla. Who has time to fuss around with a crust? This pie has 12 crushed crackers mixed right into the pie itself. Soda Cracker Pie is a testament to Southerners' resourcefulness, and right now, it really hits the spot.

This pie is delicious, with or without a filling. I make it with pecans and serve it with whipped topping and one shake of nutmeg on top. Or I make it without pecans and fill with fruit filling such as lemon filling. I use soda crackers, saltines, graham crackers or buttery round crackers, finely crushed

SODA CRACKER PIE
My grandmother was a wonderful cook. Even in her "town" house (as opposed to her farm house) she had two kitchens. One on the main floor for day to day cooking, and another in the basement for canning and preserving. After her death, my mother and I were cleaning out the cupboards in the basement kitchen. We found recipe box after recipe box. When my mom found this recipe, she almost did a cartwheel! I looked at the recipe and thought, "ok, this doesn't really sound all that good...." Mom told me, "wait til you try it!!" It's now one of my favorite desserts. The crust is dense and somewhat salty, which perfectly balances the creamy sweetness of the topping.

Steps:
- Grease an 8″ spring-form pan with butter. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F. In a medium mixing bowl, add 3 egg whites and beat until fluffy, approximately 30 seconds. Gradually add sugar and continue to beat until another minute. Batter will resemble runny pancake batter. Add vanilla and coconut oil, beating until well incorporated. In a sandwich size plastic bag, add saltines and crumble with your hands or the back of a wooden spoon until crackers are about nickel sized pieces (does not have to be exact, just don't smash into crumbs). Add the baking powder to the saltines and mix in with your hand. Add walnuts and saltines to batter and fold in with a large spoon or spatula. Pour batter into spring-form pan and spread to edges. Bake in 375F oven for 20 minutes or until edges appear golden. Remove from oven and cool 5 minutes on baking rack. After 5 minutes, release sides of pan and cool completely. Meanwhile, place shredded coconut on a baking sheet and return to 375F degree oven. Toast coconut approximately 5-7 minutes, watching not to burn. Remove from oven and let cool completely while finishing torte. Whip cream to desired stiffness, adding sugar to taste and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Remove cooled torte from pan onto plate, cover with whipped cream and toasted coconut. If time allows, chill at least one hour before serving to let whipped cream soften the top of the torte a bit. Note, you may serve immediately if necessary, but letting the whip cream sit on the torte for a bit makes it even more delectable. Delicious 2 or even 3 days later! - See more at: http://gooddinnermom.com/page/2/#sthash.rU3lsArU.dpuf
GRANDMA LILLIE'S SODA CRACKER PIE
This recipe is was given to me by a cousin at my wedding shower 16 years ago. She received it from her mother, Betty Ruckman, who had been given it many more years ago by my Mother's Mother, Lillie Craven. It would probably be good with any fruit or berry, if peaches aren't available.
