Strawberry Pie




This is a wonderful summer pie and is my husbands most requested pie.  He has me make it every year for his birthday instead of cake.  It is a light and wonderful dessert!

STRAWBERRY PIE

INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 1/2 lbs. strawberries cleaned and quartered or whole
  • 2 TBSP strawberry jello
  • 3 TBSP cornstarch
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 baked pie shell

DIRECTIONS:

Bake pie shell and let cool.  Arrange berries in pie shell. Mix jello, cornstarch, tepid water and sugar in a saucepan.  Mix until cornstarch is dissolved.  Bring to a boil and boil for 3 minutes until thickened, stirring constantly to prevent burning.  Remove from heat and let sit for 2-3 minutes.  Pour glaze over pie shell and chill for several hours, until firm, before serving.  Serve with whipped cream.
