Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece pre-made pie crust
- 4 cups fresh strawberries
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 cup whipped cream
Instructions
Bake the pre-made pie crust according to the package instructions and allow it to cool completely.
Wash and hull the strawberries. Slice half of them thinly and keep the other half whole for decorating.
In a medium saucepan, combine granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and water. Whisk until smooth.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook while stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and becomes translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes.
Stir the sliced strawberries into the sauce until evenly coated.
Pour the strawberry mixture into the cooled pie crust and spread it out evenly.
Decorate the top of the pie with the whole strawberries, placing them pointed side up for a neat presentation.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 3 hours to allow it to set completely.
Serve chilled with a dollop of whipped cream on each slice.
