1 9 Inch Pie Plate
1 Small Saucepan
1 Small bowl
- 1 sheet refrigerated pie crust or make your own Homemade Pie Crust!
- 1 quart fresh strawberries quartered
- ¼ cup water
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- ½ cup water
- 1 tbsp unflavored powdered gelatin
Lay pie dough into a 9-inch pie plate or tin and press the edges to secure. Bake, undocked, according to the package instructions.
For the filling, mash half of the berries with a fork and combine with ¼ cup of water, sugar, and vanilla in a small saucepot. Bring to a low boil over medium heat, continuing to mash the berries. Cook for 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and ½ cup of cold water. Slowly add to the berry filling and return to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Reduce to medium-low and cook until thickened, about 3 minute. Reduce to low heat and add the gelatin. Whisk to combine. Cook for 3 minutes or until the gelatin is dissolved, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and fold in the remaining fresh strawberries.
Pour filling into baked and cooled pie crust and smooth with a spatula. Chill in the refrigerator for 4 hours. Top with whipped chantilly cream!
Use ripe strawberries: The better your berries, the better your pie will taste.
Don’t skip the gelatin: It helps the pie set properly and slice cleanly.
Let it chill fully: Give it at least 4 hours so the filling firms up.
Cool the crust completely: A warm crust can make the filling runny.
