Prep Time 25 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings 8

Ingredients
  

  • 1 each Pie crust 9-inch, baked and completely cooled
  • 2 quarts Fresh strawberries Washed, hulled, and dried
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 cup Water
  • 3 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 3 oz Strawberry gelatin (Jell-O) One standard small box
  • 1 cup Heavy whipping cream Chilled
  • 2 tbsp Milk Whole milk preferred
  • 2 tbsp Powdered sugar

Instructions
 

  • Bake the 9-inch pie crust according to package or recipe instructions until golden brown. Allow to cool completely.
  • Wash and hull the fresh strawberries. Arrange them snugly inside the cooled pie crust.
  • In a medium saucepan, whisk together the granulated sugar, cornstarch, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens into a clear syrup (about 2-3 minutes).
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the strawberry gelatin powder until completely dissolved. Let the glaze cool for 15 minutes.
  • Pour the cooled glaze evenly over the arranged strawberries in the pie crust, ensuring all berries are well coated.
  • Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the glaze is completely set.
  • Just before serving, whip the heavy cream, milk, and powdered sugar in a bowl until stiff peaks form. Spread or pipe over the chilled pie.
