This is a light chiffon pie my grandmother used to make. It calls for strawberries, but she often substituted crushed pineapple, raspberries, or any frozen berries.

Time 8h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (.25 ounce) package unflavored gelatin
½ cup cold water
⅔ cup white sugar
1 cup mashed strawberries
3 egg whites
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
⅓ cup white sugar
½ cup heavy whipping cream
1 (9 inch) pie crust, baked

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water and set aside to soften for 5 minutes.
  • Combine 2/3 cup sugar, the rehydrated gelatin, and the mashed fruit in a saucepan. Cook to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Immediately remove the pan from the heat and set the bottom of the pan in cold water; cool just until the mixture mounds slightly when dropped from a spoon.
  • Combine the egg whites, cream of tartar, and 1/3 cup sugar in a heat-proof mixing bowl. Whisk the mixture slightly, just to break up the egg whites. Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water on the stove. Heat the mixture, whisking constantly, until the egg white mixture is hot to the touch and has reached 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) on an instant-read thermometer. Immediately remove the bowl from the heat and whip with an electric mixer until the meringue forms medium-stiff glossy peaks.
  • Use a whisk or spatula to fold the fruit mixture into the meringue. Meanwhile, whip the cream in a cold bowl until medium-stiff peaks form.
  • The filling mixture should be no warmer than room temperature when you add the whipped cream. Add one third of the whipped cream into the filling mixture, mixing gently until combined. Fold in the remaining whipped cream and pile the filling into the cooled baked pie shell. Chill several hours until set.

WATERMELON CHIFFON PIE



Watermelon Chiffon Pie image

This feather-light chiffon pie has the subtle but distinct flavor of watermelon; as well it should, since there are nearly three cups of watermelon juice in the filling. That juice is thickened with gelatin, and then blended with whipped cream and beaten egg whites to give the filling that airy chiffon texture we all love. The pie makes a luscious summer dessert for any gathering of friends or family. It looks cool garnished with watermelon balls, but don't garnish until the last moment to prevent juice buildup on the plates. This recipe is best made at the height of watermelon season. Cooking time is fridge time.

MANGO CHIFFON PIE



Mango Chiffon Pie image

Chiffon pies get their fluffy texture from a mixture of gelatin and egg whites. I love the tartness the mango gives the filling and when paired with the graham cracker-toasted coconut crust, it's a dessert that reminds me of being on a tropical island. You're going to love it!

Categories     dessert

Time 3h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

13 graham cracker sheets
1/2 cup toasted sweetened coconut flakes
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
One 1/4-ounce packet unflavored gelatin
1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen mango chunks (thawed, if frozen)
1/2 cup mango nectar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs, separated (see Cook's Note)
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Pulse the graham crackers, coconut flakes and salt in a food processor until the crackers are crushed. Add the melted butter and pulse until combined. Press the crust into a 10-inch deep-dish pie plate. Bake until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • Meanwhile, sprinkle the gelatin over 1/4 cup water in a medium heatproof bowl and let soften 5 minutes. Blend the mango, mango nectar and lemon juice in a blender until smooth. Add to the softened gelatin with 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar and all the egg yolks. Whisk until smooth.
  • Place the bowl over a medium saucepan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water). Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a wooden spoon, 5 to 8 minutes. Refrigerate, stirring occasionally, until the mixture has slightly thickened and cooled, about 30 minutes.
  • Beat the egg whites in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Slowly add the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar and cream of tartar and beat until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the mango mixture in 3 additions, waiting until each addition is incorporated before adding the next. Pour the filling into the prepared crust and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.
  • Beat the cream, powdered sugar and vanilla in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Dollop onto the center of the pie. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • To ensure a smooth and lump-free filling, make sure the gelatin mixture has cooled slightly before adding it to the whipped cream.
  • For a more intense watermelon flavor, use fresh watermelon juice instead of store-bought juice.
  • Chill the pie crust before filling it to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a resealable plastic bag with the corner snipped off to create a makeshift piping bag.
  • To prevent the whipped cream from curdling, make sure the bowl and beaters are completely clean and free of any grease.
