: NOTES : I cook mine in a double boiler, that
: way no problems with it sticking to the pan.
: I put the milk in the double boiler to heat.
: I then mix the rest of the ingredients
: (except the coconut) with about 1/2 cup of
: milk I saved from the 3 cups in the recipe.
: Mix this into the heated milk and stir well.
: Let cook to thicken. Add the coconut &
: place in baked pie shell. Top with
: meringue.
: You could substitute bananas for the
: coconut, and there you go, a banana cream
: pie.
:
: MERINGUE
:
: Beat egg whites until frothy and double in
: size. Mix together sugar, cornstarch and
: cream of tartar. Sprinkle over egg whites
: and eat until egg whites are stiff and all
: sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Beat in
: vanilla. Place meringue on top of hot pie
: filling, sealing meringue to edge of pie
: crust. Bake at 400ºF. for 12-15 minutes,
: until light brown.
:
: Note. You can substitute Splenda for the
: sugar in both the filling and meringue. The
: meringue doesn't get as fluffy as it does
: with sugar, but it is good and can be used
: for a diabetic. I make my crust with
: canola oil which is better for you, less bad
: fat.
