Lemon Meringue Pie

Today cooking lesson again, and ...

Lemon Meringue Pie

The caster sugar was swopped for unrefined light brown sugar, olive oil for the butter and spelt instead of bog-standard white flour in the pastry and the lemon bits left in.

What a glorious smell of honeycomb and so velvety and glossy on top.

The pastry needs a bit of work on, as one needs double water if using wholemeal/spelt.

Thought the Meringue bit would be a wonderful raining day project for daughter and I.
