The Best Strawberry Pie (+Video)

Step 1

Prebake pie crust according to directions on package (making sure to prick the crust with a fork so it doesn't puff up too much while baking). Cool to room temperature

Step 2

In a sauce pan, over medium-high heat, add water, sugar, cornstarch, and strawberry gelatin. Whisk together until thoroughly combined.

Step 3

Whisk mixture constantly while heating to prevent clumping or scorching until mixture begins to come to a gentle boil.

Step 4

Remove pan from the heat and allow the glaze to cool. Tip: I like to put the sauce pan into my sink where I've made some ice water.

Step 5

As the glaze cools it will become translucent in color and you should notice it will thicken a little more as well. Whisk it occasionally as it cools. It should be thickened but still pourable.

Step 6

Add sliced berries to the baked and cooled pie crust.

Step 7

Pour strawberry glaze over berries. Making sure to get it in between the nooks and crannies of the berries as best you can.

Step 8

Chill pie in the refrigerator at least 2-3 hours before slicing and serving. Top with a dollop of whipped cream.
