Break free of dessert boundaries with the ‘King Arthur Flour’ Lemon Meringue Cupcakes. Combining the best characteristics of traditional cupcakes and a classic fruit pie recipe, this delectable edible will have you thinking you've died and gone to heaven. Imagine a zesty lemon filling and light-as-air meringue topping floating gently on top of a moist cupcake.
Whip up a batch of conventional cupcakes and be sure to have a corer close at hand, as you will be using it later. After the cupcakes have cooled, core them and fill each to the brim with tangy lemon curd.
Bakers can either choose ready-made meringue or opt for the more labor-intensive option of a from-scratch recipe. Whichever meringue recipe you choose, the King Arthur Flour Lemon Meringue Cupcakes will have people coming back to the dessert table for seconds—and possibly even thirds.
