Ingredients

Chicken Egg - 3 pieces

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 356°F. Lightly grease a baking dish (20–22 cm) with oil.

Step 2

For the base, take three eggs and separate the whites from the yolks. Whisk the yolks with 50 g of sugar until a smooth white mass forms. Whip the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently combine the egg whites and yolks. Add the oat flakes and mix. If the batter seems too runny, add a little ground oats. Spread the batter in the dish. Bake for 10–15 minutes. Let cool.

Step 3

If you are using frozen berries, rinse them with hot water. Let the water drain. Mix the starch and powdered sugar and sprinkle this mixture over the berries. Gently stir. Spread the filling over the base and bake in the oven for 5–7 minutes.

Step 4

For the meringue, pour 175 g of sugar into a saucepan, add 75 ml of water, and place over high heat. Stir until the syrup comes to a boil. Boil the syrup over high heat for 5 minutes. Whip the egg whites to a foam. While continuing to whip, gradually pour in the syrup, then add the lemon juice. Let the pie cool for 5 minutes. Spread the meringue over the pie and bake in the oven until golden brown.
