Pie for Friday

  I have had a taste for a slice of lemon  meringue pie-so I made one the other day-from scratch of course.
   I have used a recipe that was a blue ribbon winner from a Farm Journal cookbook for over 30 years now.  I don't know if these cookbooks are still being printed but they have the best recipes from farm girl cooks. I still have several of the books.
   I used ground almonds-butter-and a non sugar sweetener for the crust
I did cut some of the sugar in the filling by using splenda for part of the sugar.



Perfect for an early evening treat-as we eat one main meal now a day around 2 in the afternoon




Happy Friday

    That sure looks yummy. Lemon meringue is good when it is hot. And I have a couple of farm journal cookbooks. I had to buy them used, so I don't think they are printed ny longer. But I'm not positive. Enjoy your weekend! Hugs-Erika

      Yes this is really good during a hot summer day. I am thinking these books are no longer being printed either-there are allot of them.

    Hello Kathy. I am back :-) I have been 10 months away from my blog ...far too long!! Life does get in the way sometimes. I am trying to contact all my blogfriends to renew contact and also to invite everyone to enter my Fresh Start Giveaway on my blog. I thought a giveaway would "lighten our spirits" a little during these troubled times.
    Your lemon meringue pie looks really delicious. I shouldn't even look at it because I am on a diet! keep well Amanda :-)
