How to Make Fluffy Strawberry Pie With Pretzel Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine 1 ½ cups crushed pretzels, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter in a medium bowl. Mix well.
  2. Press the pretzel mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch glass pie plate. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely.
  3. In a small bowl, sprinkle 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin over ½ cup boiling water. Let stand for 1 minute to soften.
  4. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
  5. Stir in the zest and juice of 1 lime.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until very thick but not set.
  7. Beat the gelatin mixture with an electric mixer on high speed for about 4 minutes, or until thick and fluffy.
  8. Set aside.
  9. In a chilled large bowl, beat 2 cups heavy whipping cream and ¼ cup powdered sugar on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  10. Gently fold the whipped cream and 2 cups crushed fresh strawberries into the gelatin mixture.
  11. Pour the filling into the cooled pretzel crust.
  12. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, until completely set.
