How to Make Fresh Strawberry Pie With Almond Graham Crust
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Butter a 9-inch glass pie plate.
- In a food processor, combine 1 cup almond halves, 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, and ¼ cup granulated sugar. Pulse until finely ground.
- Add 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter and pulse until evenly moistened.
- Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely on a wire rack before filling.
- To make the filling: In a medium saucepan, mash 2 cups fresh strawberries with a potato masher until chunky.
- Add ½ cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and a few drops of red food coloring (optional).
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves, the mixture boils, and thickens (about 2-3 minutes).
- Transfer the mixture to a bowl and let cool completely to room temperature.
- Once cooled, gently fold in the remaining 4 cups fresh strawberries.
- Pour the filling into the prepared crust.
- Chill for at least 3 hours, or until set.
- In a chilled bowl, beat 2 cups heavy whipping cream with 2 tablespoons powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
- Spoon or pipe the whipped cream decoratively around the edges of the pie.
- Serve and enjoy!
