Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 0.75 cups Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Almond extract
• 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
• 2 cups Fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
• 0.5 cups Almonds, sliced
• 2 tablespoons Honey

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and texture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, then set aside to cool completely.

Step 5

Using a hand or stand mixer, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together in a large bowl until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Mix in the almond extract until fully incorporated.

Step 7

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream to stiff peaks.

Step 8

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, combining thoroughly without deflating the airiness of the whipped cream.

Step 9

Spread the almond cream filling evenly into the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 10

Arrange the halved strawberries on top of the cream filling in a decorative pattern.

Step 11

In a small skillet over medium heat, toast the sliced almonds until golden brown, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Allow to cool for a few minutes.

Step 12

Drizzle the toasted almonds with honey and scatter them over the top of the strawberries.

Step 13

Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set before serving.

Step 14

Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your Strawberry Almond Cream Pie!
