LEMON CHIFFON PIE

Steps:

• First of all, you can totally use a store bought crust if you want to make this recipe easier and also if you don't need the gluten free crust which I'll now explain.
• I used a food processor for this crust and it worked great. You could do this by hand if you don't have one. Start by putting the first 5 crust ingredients into the food processor. Place lid on and pulse a few times to mix it up. Turn it on and gradually add the cubed butter. Then add the ice water and watch the ball of dough form.
• Roll the dough into a big ball and cut in half. Store half in a ziptop bag in the freezer for future use. Roll out the remaining half between two pieces of waxed paper. Roll it out to a 12-inch disk. Then place crust in pie plate. Crimp the edges and bake in a 375°F oven for 10-12 minutes or until slightly light golden brown on the edges. Let cool.
• Place the gelatin, sugar, salt, egg yolks, lemon juice and water in a medium sized heavy saucepan. Heat on medium, stirring constantly just until it comes to a boil. Stir in zest. Remove from heat and refrigerate long enough for it to set up slightly - about 30-40 minutes. Stir it occasionaly.
• Meanwhile, beat your egg whites. Note: If you're concerned about eating raw eggs, place the egg whites and sugar in a bowl set over a pan of boiling water. Whisk constantly for 90 seconds. Then remove from heat and beat egg whites mixture until stiff peaks form. Fold into chilled lemon curd mixture. Pour into pie shell and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight. Top with fresh whipped cream or whipped coconut milk if you can't have dairy. Store pie in refrigerator for up to 3 days.
