Why You’ll Love This Recipe
Lemon meringue pie is a timeless favorite with its bright lemon filling and fluffy meringue topping. But when you’re camping, you don’t want to bother with pie crusts, baking, or fussing over meringue.
That’s why we love this easy Walking Lemon Meringue Pie! It’s made with Golden Oreos, lemon meringue pudding, and whipping cream, creating a simple yet indulgent dessert that tastes like a slice of sunshine.
Plus, it’s all packed up in a convenient snack bag—perfect for on-the-go sweetness.
Ingredients
- Bags of Golden Oreos – Teddy Grahams or Animal Crackers would work too!
- Lemon Meringue Pudding Snack Packs – these are perfect for that lemon meringue filling.
- Whipping cream – we like to pack a can of whipping cream in the fridge for topping.
Instructions
- Crush the Golden Oreos – Start by crushing the Golden Oreos right in their bags. You can break them into small pieces by hand, or use a rolling pin to crush them into a fine crumble. These will be your “crust,” so make sure they’re nice and crumbly!
- Add the Lemon Meringue Pudding – Once your Oreos are crushed, spoon in a generous amount of lemon meringue pudding from the snack packs. The creamy, tangy pudding gives your Walking Lemon Meringue Pie its signature citrusy filling that’s sure to satisfy.
- Top with Whipping Cream – Next, add a fluffy dollop of whipping cream on top of the pudding. The creamy topping adds just the right amount of sweetness and richness to balance out the tart lemon flavor.
- Serve & Enjoy – Grab a spoon, and you’re ready to enjoy your Walking Lemon Meringue Pie! It’s the perfect, no-mess dessert that’s easy to take with you on any adventure.
Tips & Tricks
- To avoid any spills, be sure to use a thicker, more durable snack bag. No one wants their delicious lemony dessert leaking everywhere!
- To make your life even easier, crush the Golden Oreos before your trip and pack them in a resealable bag. When you’re ready to assemble, all you need to do is add the pudding and whipped cream!
- For an extra burst of lemon flavor, sprinkle some lemon zest over the whipped cream. It adds a fresh, zesty finish that perfectly complements the rich pudding filling.
- If you’re looking for a quicker option, canned whipping cream is a great substitute. Just keep it cool in your cooler until you’re ready to serve!
- For an even more indulgent twist, drizzle some lemon syrup or lemon curd over the pudding before adding the whipped cream. It will give your Walking Lemon Meringue Pie an extra layer of lemony goodness!
- If you can, chill the lemon meringue pudding before packing it for your camping trip. It’s not a must, but it helps make the dessert feel a little more refreshing when you’re ready to eat.
