How to Make Bavarian Strawberry Cream Pie

  1. In a large bowl, crush 2 lbs fresh strawberries and add 1 cup granulated sugar. Gently mash some of the strawberries for a chunky texture.
  2. Let the strawberry mixture stand for 30 minutes to allow the strawberries to release their juices and the sugar to dissolve.
  3. In a separate bowl, sprinkle 2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin over ½ cup cold water. Let stand for 5 minutes to bloom.
  4. Add ½ cup boiling water to the gelatin mixture and stir until completely dissolved.
  5. Stir in the strawberry mixture and 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice.
  6. Chill the gelatin mixture in the refrigerator until it reaches the consistency of unbeaten egg whites (approximately 2-3 hours).
  7. In a separate bowl, whip 2 cups heavy cream with 2 tablespoons powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
  8. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chilled strawberry mixture until just combined.
  9. Pour the filling into your prepared pie crust (recipe #371212 recommended).
  10. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to set completely.
