Apple Lemon Meringue Pie

Apple Meringue Pie is a delicious alternative to the usual Lemon Meringue which I normally make. The taste is very similar but with the added apple there is also a crunch to this pie.

Apple Lemon Meringue Pie

Most apple pies are almost always a hit as a dessert. This pie is sweet with just a tiny break in the sweetness when you bite into the apple. And a little tartness from the Lemon.

If you prefer a tarter pie, add a teaspoon of finely grated lemon zest to the filling !

Apple Lemon Meringue Pie

I like a fairly thick crust especially when it is made of Tennis biscuits. South-African readers – have you seen there will be Tennis Biscuit Crumbs out soon? I have not found it at my local supermarkets yet, but it might be available at the bigger Hyper Markets. What a convenience that’s going to be!
