How to Make My Homemade Strawberry Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups flour and 1 teaspoon salt.
  3. Cut in 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1/2 cup milk, and 1 large egg yolk.
  5. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Form the dough into a ball, divide it in half, and flatten each half into a disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  7. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disc of dough into a 1/4-inch thick circle. Carefully transfer it to a 9-inch pie plate.
  8. Trim and crimp the edges.
  9. Prick the bottom crust with a fork and bake for 20 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  10. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup lemon juice, 1/4 cup cornstarch, and 1 cup granulated sugar.
  11. Gently fold in 4 cups sliced strawberries.
  12. Once the bottom crust is baked and slightly cooled, pour the strawberry mixture into the crust.
  13. Roll out the second disc of dough and place it over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal.
  14. Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  15. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 egg and 1/4 cup of sugar for the egg wash. Brush the egg wash over the top crust for added color and shine.
  16. Bake for an additional 10-20 minutes, or until the top crust is golden brown.
  17. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before refrigerating for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set.
  18. Serve chilled. Top with vanilla ice cream, if desired. Serves 8.
