How to Make Summer Fresh Strawberry Pie
- Preheat oven to the temperature specified on your pie crust box.
- In a medium bowl, gently toss the sliced strawberries with 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup Splenda. Set aside for 10-15 minutes to allow the strawberries to release their juices.
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together the cornstarch, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and 1 cup of water until smooth.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens to a clear consistency (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in the unflavored gelatin until completely dissolved. Let cool slightly.
- Carefully pour the cooled gelatin mixture into the pre-baked pie crust.
- Arrange the macerated strawberries evenly over the gelatin mixture. Gently press down with a spoon to help them settle.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until completely set.
- Before serving, spread a thick layer of Cool Whip evenly over the top of the pie.
