Ingredients

• 1 piece Pre-made pie crust (9-inch)
• 6 cups Fresh strawberries
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 0.75 cup Water
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0 Whipped cream (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). If using an unbaked pie crust, carefully fit it into a 9-inch pie pan, trim the excess, and crimp the edges. Use a fork to poke small holes in the bottom and sides of the crust to prevent puffing during baking.

Step 2

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside to cool completely.

Step 3

Wash and hull the fresh strawberries. If the strawberries are large, cut them in half or quarters. Reserve 4 cups of strawberries for the pie and mash 2 cups of the strawberries in a bowl for the glaze.

Step 4

In a medium saucepan, combine the mashed strawberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, water, and lemon juice. Stir well to combine and break up any lumps of cornstarch.

Step 5

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture thickens and becomes glossy. Remove from heat and let the glaze cool to room temperature.

Step 6

Arrange the reserved whole or halved strawberries in the baked pie crust, creating an even layer.

Step 7

Pour the cooled glaze over the strawberries, making sure to coat them evenly and fill in any gaps between the berries.

Step 8

Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the glaze is fully set.

Step 9

Once set, slice and serve the pie with whipped cream, if desired. Enjoy your Strawberry Glaze Pie!
