Ingredients

  • 1 single pie crust click for recipe
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 3-ounce package strawberry flavored gelatin like JELL-O
  • 4 cups fresh strawberries sliced
  • Fresh whipping cream for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C.
  • Roll out the pie crust, and place in a 9-inch pie dish. Blind bake it by adding parchment paper or foil, and pie weights or beans to the pie. Bake for 8 minutes, remove pie weights and parchment paper or foil and bake for 5 more minutes.
  • In a saucepan, combine water, cornstarch, and sugar. Bring mixture to a boil and stir until the mixture thickens (2 minutes).
  • Remove from heat, and stir in the gelatine. Set aside to cool for 15-20 minutes.
  • Arrange the fresh strawberries in the pre-baked pie crust, and then pour the gelatine mixture over the strawberries. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set (minimum 4 hours).
  • Top with whipping cream if desired and serve.

Notes

To avoid crust from getting soggy, brush the inside of the pie with egg wash before pre-baking it.
