How To Make meringue topping

• 
  Step 1
  Carefully separate egg whites and yolks over a bowl. Check for shells or yolks.
• 
  Step 2
  Pour egg whites into a clean glass or metal bowl. Beat the egg whites until just bubbly.
• 
  Step 3
  Add the cream of tartar. Mix on medium-high speed.
• 
  Step 4
  When peaks form, slowly add granulated sugar. Mix on medium-high speed between additions. After all the sugar has been added, mix for 2-4 minutes until stiff peaks have formed.
• 
  Step 5
  Check meringue after mixing for 3-4 minutes. If it is shiny and stiff peaks form when the beaters are lifted, the meringue is done. If not, mix for another minute or two and check again.
• 
  Step 6
  Spread the meringue onto the pie filling and completely seal the crust.
• 
  Step 7
  Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
• 
  Step 8
  The meringue should be toasted brown. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
