Classic Strawberry Pie: A Nostalgic Delight (Page 1 ) | March 16, 2025

Ingredients:

For the filling:

1 cup crushed strawberries

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup water

3 tablespoons cornstarch

3 cups fresh strawberries, sliced

For the crust:

1 pre-baked 9-inch pie crust (traditional or graham cracker)

For garnish:

Whipped cream

Instructions:

Prepare the Strawberry Glaze:

In a medium saucepan, combine the crushed strawberries, sugar, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in a few tablespoons of water to create a slurry.

Gradually whisk the cornstarch slurry into the boiling strawberry mixture. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and becomes translucent.

Remove from heat and allow the glaze to cool to room temperature.

Assemble the Pie:

Arrange the sliced fresh strawberries evenly in the pre-baked pie crust.

Pour the cooled strawberry glaze over the sliced berries, ensuring they are thoroughly coated.

Let the pie sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to set slightly.

Chill and Serve:

Transfer the pie to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until the filling is firm.

Before serving, garnish with dollops of whipped cream.

Tips:

For an added twist, consider incorporating a tablespoon of strawberry daiquiri mix into the glaze for a subtle, refreshing flavor.

Ensure the pie crust is fully cooled before adding the filling to prevent sogginess.

This pie pairs wonderfully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for an indulgent treat.

This classic strawberry pie recipe offers a delightful blend of sweet, juicy berries and a tender crust, evoking memories of family gatherings and summer picnics. Its simplicity and rich flavor make it a timeless dessert that continues to bring joy to both young and old alike.

Enjoy!
