This is a recipe for how to make pumpkin pie with meringue peaks. This recipe is really great if you can not decide between a meringue pie or traditional pumpkin pie for Halloween, Thanksgiving or Christmas.Yet, the recipe is still applicable all year round. The recipe includes ingredients for the meringue, ingredients for the pie filling, and the method for constructing the pumpkin pie with meringue peaks. The pumpkin pie with meringue peak recipe also includes tips for how to make the meringue a festive color- like green for Christmas or black for Halloween. This past weekend, I tried out the recipe and used the directions for black meringue. It was not only a yummy pumpkin pie, but my daughter got to help with the black dye aspect. She thought the black meringue peaks were "so cool" and learned what colors to mix together to make black food coloring. A yummy learning experience!
