Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place a baking sheet on the middle rack to catch any drips from the pie.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Gently toss until the strawberries are evenly coated. Set aside for about 10 minutes to let the juices release.
Roll out the prepared pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges as desired. Place the pie dish in the refrigerator while you prepare the crumb topping.
In a medium bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and salt. Add the cold, diced butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the mixture into coarse crumbs. Set aside.
Remove the pie dish from the refrigerator and pour the strawberry mixture into the crust, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle the crumb topping over the strawberry filling, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Place the pie on the preheated baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the crumb topping is golden brown. If the edges of the crust begin to brown too quickly, cover them with foil or a pie shield.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set.
Serve the pie at room temperature or chilled. Optionally, pair it with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
