Ingredients

• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 egg whites
• ¼ cup white sugar
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch
• 4 cups blueberries
• 1 (9 inch) pie shell, partially baked

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

In a large bowl, stir together the sugar, cinnamon and cornstarch. Add blueberries and lemon juice, and stir gently to coat berries. Pour into the pie crust.

Step 3

Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven. When the pie is done, whip the egg whites in a large glass or metal bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually sprinkle in sugar while continuing to whip into a stiff meringue. Spread over the hot filling so that the meringue is sealed to the crust all around.

Step 4

Bake for 10 more minutes, or until meringue is nicely browned. Cool to room temperature before refrigerating or serving.
