Soda Cracker Pie
My grandmother was a wonderful cook. Even in her "town" house (as opposed to her farm house) she had two kitchens. One on the main floor for day to day cooking, and another in the basement for canning and preserving. After her death, my mother and I were cleaning out the cupboards in the basement kitchen. We found recipe box after recipe box. When my mom found this recipe, she almost did a cartwheel! I looked at the recipe and thought, "ok, this doesn't really sound all that good...." Mom told me, "wait til you try it!!" It's now one of my favorite desserts. The crust is dense and somewhat salty, which perfectly balances the creamy sweetness of the topping.

Number of ingredients: 11
Ingredients:
- 3 egg whites
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 14 soda crackers (1/2 cup in crumbs)
- 1/2 cup pecans (crushed *OPTIONAL)
- 8 - 12 peaches (peeled and sliced)
- 1 teaspoon corn starch
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
How to cook:
- For the Meringue Crust
- With a hand mixer (or a stand mixer) whisk the egg whites until frothy.
- Add in the baking powder and gradually add the sugar, continue whisking until the egg whites are stiff.
- In a ziplock bag roll the soda crackers until they are a fine crumb.
- Fold in the soda cracker crumbs into the whipped egg whites.
- Move mixture into a greased pie dish.
- Bake at 325 for 30 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- For the Peaches
- Peel and slice the peaches. Move sliced peaches to a colander with a bowl under it to collect excess peach juices.
- In a small sauce pan set to medium temp, thicken the peach juices with cornstarch and cook until thickened.
- Toss the peaches with powdered sugar and the thickened peach juice to make a glaze.
- For the sweetened whipped cream
- Add the heavy cream into a chilled bowl and add the sugar and vanilla. Using an electric hand mixer or stand mixer with the whisk attachment, whip the cream to the desired consistency. For soft peaks, the cream will be just thick enough to hold its shape. Whip the cream a little longer for stiff peaks.
- When ready to serve top the pie crust with the fresh peaches and a dollop of whipped cream.
