Re: Lemon Pie
Yes when I make meringue I use the egg whites with cream of tarter and granulated splenda.

Re: Lemon Pie
When I made the lemon pie without meringue I didn't bake it at all. With the meringue I bake on 350 degrees until nice and brown . I can't remember how many minutes but I would say 15 min or so.

Re: Lemon Pie
I would think for the ones that can't use crystal light you could use koolaid lemonade powder and your own powdered sweetener. I have tried making lemon pie with just lemons but it was alot of work and came out terrible.

Re: Lemon Pie
Also, you need to realize that corn starch is very processed (more so than corn meal) and might produce results you really don't want. I think 4 tablespoons is a lot -- a fourth of a cup. I've seen it in a few recipes, but I personally stay away from it.
