Ingredients Needed

There’s a reason this is called the easiest strawberry pie. Not only is it simple to prepare, but it uses a lot of ingredients that you’ll already have in your pantry! Exact measurements can be found below in the recipe card.

9-Inch Pie Crust: You can use either a premade or homemade pie crust here. Cornstarch and Water: This mixture helps to thicken up the strawberry filling. Sugar: Makes the filling nice and sweet! Strawberry Jello Mix: Adds extra berry flavor and also helps the filling set up properly. This way, it can be cut into uniform slices without making a mess. Fresh Strawberries: Since strawberries are in season right now, fresh is the way to go! Fresh Whipping Cream: (Optional) The perfect creamy topping.

How to Make a Homemade Strawberry Pie

It only takes 3 simple steps to whip up the perfect summer pie! It’s so flaky and buttery with juicy strawberry in every bite. You’re going to love it!

Thicken the Filling: Cornstarch thickens more effectively than flour but needs higher temperatures to thicken. Toss it with sugar first to help it disperse better when it hits liquid. Keep in mind that cornstarch can lose thickening power if heated too long or overwhisked once thickened. Blind Bake the Crust: You’ll need to pre-bake the crust to make sure it’s golden brown and flaky. This is a crucial step since the strawberry filling isn’t baked, it sets up in the fridge.
