How to Make Fantastic Strawberry Pie
- Mash enough strawberries to measure 2 1/2 cups.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the mashed strawberries, 1/2 cup water, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons cornstarch.
- Whisk the mixture thoroughly until the sugar and cornstarch are fully dissolved.
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- Continue to stir continuously for 2 minutes after the mixture comes to a boil.
- Remove from heat and let cool completely for at least 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
- Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups whole strawberries (sliced in half or quartered if large).
- Pour the strawberry filling into your pre-baked pie crust.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving for optimal flavor and setting. Top with freshly whipped cream before serving.
