Recipe Information
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
- Whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
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.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside to cool completely.
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.
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.
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.
Arrange the reserved whole or halved strawberries in the baked pie crust, creating an even layer.
Pour the cooled glaze over the strawberries, making sure to coat them evenly and fill in any gaps between the berries.
Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the glaze is fully set.
Once set, slice and serve the pie with whipped cream, if desired. Enjoy your Strawberry Glaze Pie!
