You don't need eggs for meringue when there's aquafaba | image/The Vegan Twins Plantry
WARNING! This is not a healthy vegan pie! It’s full of sugar and white flour.
On the other hand, lemon meringue pie it is my little James’ favorite dessertcake and I had to perfect the vegan version of it. So here it is, your treat that is to be enjoyed sparingly (but nevertheless enjoyed).
Aquafaba, the liquid you find in a tin of chickpeas, is very temperamental so let me know how it works for you. Every tin could be different in quality so maybe try different brands if it doesn’t work well at first. I had a few terrible outcomes but this one turned out perfect.
So enjoy!
