Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

- Set aside.
- In large bowl, cream together sugar, cornmeal, lemon juice, butter and egg yolks for 5 minutes or more until creamy.
- Gently fold beaten egg whites into this lemon mixture.
- Gently pour filling into pie crust.
- Bake about 15 minutes or until top of pie begins to brown.
- Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees and bake an additional 25 to 30 minutes or more until pie is just set in the middle.
- It should be a little jiggly, not runny, in the middle.
- Remove from oven and cool.
- It can be refrigerated, but is best served at room temperature.
- Covered, this pie will keep unrefrigerated for up to 4 days; however, it won't last that long!
