Nanny'S Lemon Fluff Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350.rnPlace the sifted flour and salt into a bowl and whisk well. Pour in oil and milk, and, using a fork, mix well to combine.
  2. Between two sheets of waxed paper, roll out your crust to desired thickness (for this pie, I like the crust to be on the thin side) and invert over a pie plate.rnLine with pie weights or foil/beans, and bake 10-15 minutes, until light golden brown. Remove from oven and set crust aside to cool. Reduce oven temp to 325.
  3. Preheat oven to 325. Put egg yolks in top of a double boiler and whisk until thick. Add the lemon zest, juice, water and 1/2 c sugar, beat well and cook over the hot water. Reserve.
  4. Beat the egg whites in a mixing bowl until stiff. Add the remaining sugar and continue beating until sugar is blended into the whites.rnFold 1/2 of the meringue into the warm yolk and lemon mixture to lighten. When everything is well combined, pour the mixture into the baked pie crust.
  5. Using a spoon or spatula, drop dollops of the remaining meringue in a circle around the pie's periphery. Bake in the oven until the meringue is lightly browned and the center is set, 20-25 minutes though sometimes more.
