      Recipe is created for
      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

    Best Recipe!! I never usually comment on these recipes, although i should because i do find them very helpful! This receipe is actually amazing! Best meriange i have ever made and the filling is delicious! The only tip i would give would be... at the start of the "filling" steps, I would make my lemon rind in the bowl first, as I didnt have any and had to make some in a new bowl- could have saved a quick wash up! But other than than minor inconvienience, I would highly recommend!!

    Will be my go-to lemon meringue pie recipe from now on!!


    Biscuit base is the best, the filling is just delicious! I used the meringue recipe that's for lemon meringue pie in the BCB, as I've found it's the one that works best, and I just automatically did it once I'd cooked the filling.


    My family of 6 are all currently enjoying this pie for dessert! Thank you!

    Submitted by amii83 on 3. July 2021 - 08:39.

    Beautiful!!!!! The only thing is that you do need to whip the meringue longer. Also i left to cool on the bench and then put it in the fridge overnight and the next day it cut perfectly. I also made mine with homemade sweetened condensed milk and it still worked fine. I was worried it wouldn't set well but it was great. Thanks for a brilliant recipe!

    Very yummy! Everyone loved them. I made little mini ones and they turned out great. I was concerned when I was putting the base into the muffin tray that it would crumble when trying to remove from tray after cooking. But I in the fridge to cool down and they came out very easy.
    Highly recommend!

    Submitted by melfitzgerald on 18. May 2018 - 12:16.

    Not sure if I will get a reply in time but here goes!
    Just made the base and the filling, put in fridge for 10 mins and it's now sitting on the bench.
    This pie is for tomorrow night, so reading tips from google (ha) it says leave on bench so it doesnt weep.
    I'll make the meringue tomorrow and then put it in the fridge before taking and serving at room temp.

    Is that all okay to do?



    Also, a person below asked if sweetened condensed milk adn condensed milk are the same. They're not. I only bought sweetened condensed milk so I made my own. How good is thermomix. I'll add the link for condensed milk below.

    I know I'm too late however I'm sure you could. You could then torch your meringue before serving. It's not really cooking the curd it's more just warming it through. Cheers

    This was a great recipe. The meringue was spectacular, the filling was a great flavour yet not exactly what I expected, and the base was simple and suited the dish well. It looked great up to that moment when I accidentally dropped something on top of it! Adding to my favourites.

    Very nice - the meringue was excellent. can you please add instructions for melting the butter for the base as I placed the biscuit/lemon rind in a bowl and without washing bowl I melted for 3mins/50c/speed 3. Much easier/less dishes to do it in the thermie than microwave.
