Ingredients:
- 1 pie crust
- 2 1/2 lb fresh strawberries, hulled
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 5 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 cup water
- sweetened whipped cream, for serving
Directions:
Step 1
To start, bake the pie crust according to its package instructions, then let it cool completely while you make the filling. Transfer the washed 2 1/2 lb fresh strawberries in a large mixing bowl, give them a hull, then halve them. Set the other half aside. For the other half, transfer them to a medium saucepan, then add 1/4 cup of water and 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice. Next, add 3/4 cup granulated sugar, then start mashing the strawberries with a fork or a potato masher.
Step 2
Combine 1/4 cup of water and 5 tbsp cornstarch and mix them together. Now, place the pot on medium heat and bring it to a boil, mixing it occasionally. Once boiling, turn down the heat to medium-low and add in the dissolved cornstarch. Stir and let it simmer for about five minutes. After it has thickened, turn off the heat and let it cool down for ten minutes.
Step 3
Now, pour the cooled strawberry mixture over the fresh strawberries and give it a good mix. Once done, transfer the strawberry filling into the baked pie crust. Spread it nicely and evenly, then place it in the fridge for at least three hours until it’s chilled and set. After chilling, cut into slices the garnish the top with whipped cream. Serve and enjoy!
