Peach Meringue Pie
Ingredients
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 14 saltine crackers, finely crushed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 7 fresh peaches - peeled, pitted, and sliced
  • 2 cups sweetened whipped cream
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit, or 165 degrees Celsius, for optimal baking results.
2
In a large glass or metal container, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until they become stable and can support their own weight. Gradually add sugar while continuing to mix the egg whites until they become stiff and hold their shape. Combine saltines, vanilla extract, baking powder, and pecans into the mixture by gently folding them in. Pour the mixture evenly into an ungreased 9-inch deep dish pie plate.
3
Place the pie in a preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center of the pie comes out clean. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely.
4
Once the crust has cooled, arrange sliced peaches on top of it. Cover the pie with aluminum foil to preserve their color until serving time.
5
Top the pie with sweetened whipped cream just before serving, allowing the flavors to meld together and the textures to complement each other.
