A delightful strawberry pie featuring fresh strawberries and a flaky crust, perfect for spring gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pie crust
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Whipped cream (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) so it’s ready to bake your crust to perfection.
  2. Bake the pie crust according to the package instructions until golden brown. Once done, let it cool completely before adding the filling.
  3. Combine sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan. This combination will help thicken your filling and balance the sweetness of the strawberries.
  4. Add lemon juice and 1 cup of the sliced strawberries. Cook over medium heat until bubbling and thickened to create a delicious syrup.
  5. Fold in the remaining sliced strawberries gently, ensuring they retain their shape.
  6. Fill the cooled pie crust with the strawberry filling and dot the top with bits of butter.
  7. Cool the pie completely before serving, allowing the filling to set.
  8. Serve topped with whipped cream when ready to indulge.

Notes

For best results, use fresh strawberries and chill the pie crust before baking for extra flakiness.
