Pie Iron Lemon Meringue Pie

[Ol-blue]

I used to make these with bread when growing up. I tried it using Crescent Dough and my family liked it better this way. This is like eating a Lemon Meringue Pie. Serve them warm or cold.
Enjoy! Debbie

LOL...You could get a pie iron and cook them over a BBQ or even a cook stove burner. I have done that many times.

Wow! What a terrific idea - next time I'm at the store I'm getting the ingredients. We do campfires so often while we're out RV'ing and I can hardly wait to try the crescent dough instead of bread. I'll let you know how they turn out - doubt they will be as beautiful as yours. I have some old small marshmallows and I'm going to try them.

Thanks! I hope you enjoy them as much as my family does. Enjoy! Debbie

Now I need a pie iron! LOL. I am thinking you used a square one? I thought I saw them at the camping store in square and round.

[Maverick2272]

Duh now I see that... 9 x4 and cut in half I was still thinking diagonal but that makes it 4.5 x4 square so square pie iron, LOL I think that is my sign it is getting late...

[Ol-blue]

I'm sure you can make a round one work for you. I just prefer the square ones.

I did make them and they were just great! Mine tasted more like lemon danish pastries than lemon meringue pie, but the marshmallows were so stale. I'm going to try them again wth fresh marshmallows and it will probably be a LONG time before I make my pie iron desserts with bread if I can find crescent rolls.
