You can never have too many dessert recipes, so give Rhubarb Meringue Pie a try. One portion of this dish contains about 4g of protein, 14g of fat, and a total of 206 calories. This recipe serves 8. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes roughly 1 hour and 5 minutes. If you have flour, quick-cooking oats, egg yolks, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it. Mother's Day will be even more special with this recipe. It is a good option if you're following a lacto ovo vegetarian diet.
Instructions
For crust, in a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Gradually add the flour, oats and salt and mix well. Press over the bottom and sides of a 9-in. pie plate. Cover and refrigerate.
Combine rhubarb and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
Combine the sugar, flour and salt; add to the rhubarb mixture. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat; cook and stir 2 minutes longer.
Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot filling into egg yolks; return all to pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir 2 minutes longer.
Remove from the heat. Cool slightly.
Bake at 375° for 25-30 minutes.
In a large bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, on high until stiff glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved. Beat in vanilla.
Spread evenly over hot filling, sealing edges to crust.
Bake at 350° for 12-15 minutes or until the meringue is golden brown. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
Recommended wine: Vin Santo, Late Harvest Riesling, Lambrusco Dolce
Vin Santo, Late Harvest Riesling, and Lambrusco Dolce are my top picks for Pie. These wines are all sweet, which is important since wine should usually be sweeter than the food you're pairing with it. One wine you could try is Snake River Late Harvest Riesling. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 16 dollars.
