GLUTEN-FREE LEMON PIE

Directions

1. STEP 1: Separate the yolks from the whites (separate carefully, making sure that the white does not combine with the yolk). You’ll need the egg whites later.

2. STEP 2: Start whipping soft butter with the sugar and vanilla (whisk until the mixture becomes light and luscious looking). Then add the yolks and mix until smooth.

3. STEP 3: Take one lemon and remove the lemon zest and squeeze out the lemon juice. (Be careful to remove only the yellow part of the zest; the white part is bitter).

4. STEP 4: Add the zest and the juice to the bowl of your mixture.

5. STEP 5: Combine the rice fl our, baking soda, and xanthan gum. Sift and add into the dough mixture. Mix until smooth.

6. STEP 6: Whisk the two egg whites until thick peaks form and fold into the dough.

7. STEP 7: Prepare a baking pan. Line it with parchment paper. Bake in the oven preheated to 350°F for 45 minutes. Let it cool. Serve plain or topped with powdered sugar as shown in the photo. Now stand back and watch it disappear in front of your eyes.
