Ingredients
- 1 9-inch pie crust (can use store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 3/4 cup sugar

- 1 package strawberry jello (3-ounce)
- 4 cups fresh strawberries (sliced, use ripe strawberries for best flavor)
- Fresh whipping cream (to taste, for serving)
Instructions
1. Bake the crust according to package directions. To prevent the crust from puffing, line it with aluminum foil and bake for 8 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
2. In a small saucepan, combine cornstarch, sugar, and water. Whisk until smooth. Bring to a boil while whisking for 2 minutes until it thickens.
3. Remove from heat and stir in the strawberry jello until fully dissolved. Let cool for about 15 minutes.
4. Place the sliced strawberries into the baked crust, then pour the cooled filling over them.
5. Refrigerate the pie for at least 3 hours or overnight until set. Serve chilled with fresh whipping cream.
Notes
Store leftover pie in the refrigerator, covered with plastic wrap or foil. Best eaten within 2-3 days for optimal freshness.
