Grape Juice Pie
Why I Love This Recipe
When you want something sweet, but want to try something new. Give this pie a try!
Ingredients You'll Need
1/2 Tablespoon gelatin
2 Tablespoons cold water
2 cup grape juice
1 whole egg
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
Dash of salt
2 egg yolks
4 Tablespoons cornstarch
Directions
Soften gelatin in cold water.
Bring to a boil.
Add juice and cornstarch that is mixed with 3 tablespoons cold juice.
Beat until thick.
Add egg and egg yolks.
Gradually add sugar and salt.
Stir into grape juice mixture.
Cook until thick.
Add gelatin and butter.
Pour into baked pastry shell.
Top with meringue made from 2 egg whites, 3 tablespoons sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar.
Do not add flavoring, as I believe that is what makes meringue fall and weep.
I like to lightly brown the meringue.
