Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

Butter or shortening for rubbing pie plate (about 1 tablespoon OR 1 fully baked pie crust)
5 large or 4 "extra large" egg whites
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar (or just leave it out)
1 cup granulated sugar (200 grams)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
14 graham cracker squares (broken into half inch pieces or crushed)
1 cup chopped (toasted pecans)
Optional: 1/4 cup of butterscotch chips (worth throwing in if you have some)
1 cup whipping cream
3-4 tablespoons granulated sugar or 1/4 cup powdered
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. (Note: Other recipes use 300, but I use 350).
  • Rub a 9 inch glass pie plate (I use a deep dish) generously with butter. Alternatively, have ready a pre-baked pie crust.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites and baking powder until soft peaks form. Add cream of tartar, beating constantly. Add 1 cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating constantly until stiff peaks form. Beat in vanilla. Using a rubber scraper, fold in graham crackers and chopped, toasted pecans. Pour mixture into pie plate (or baked pie shell) and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Let cool completely on a wire rack. The pie will sink a bit as it cools.
  • Prepare topping. In a chilled bowl, using chilled beaters, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add sugar and vanilla and continue beating until stiff peaks form. Do not overbeat. Top pie with whipped cream. Garnish with extra pecans if desired.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly affect the taste of your pie. Use fresh, ripe bananas and good-quality peanut butter for the best results.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the pie tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Bake the pie until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the pie is cooked through.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will help the pie to set and make it easier to slice.
