Meringue:

In the bowl of an electric mixer combine the egg whites and sugar; beat on high speed until stiff peaks form.
Spread the meringue on top of the pies by starting at the edges, mounding in the center and pushing back out to the edges. Bake for 5 minutes or until the meringue is lightly browned. Cool on a wire baking rack.
