Cut the apples into slices. Of course, we first remove the core and, if possible, peel it. If you take sour apples - they will hold their shape better after baking, the sweeter varieties (they are more loose) - may fall apart a little, but it's not terrible, it will not go anywhere.

While the pie is in the oven, beat the cold whites with a pinch of salt, gradually adding the sugar, and finally adding a few drops of lemon juice. Once the apples begin to darken slightly around the edges, take the pie out and cover with a layer of meringue. You can do this in 2-3 steps, drying each meringue layer, or you can spread it all at once. It will take exactly as long in the oven as it takes for the meringue to be ready (the pie itself will set quickly).
