Mom's Strawberry Pie


This is one of my favorite warm weather treats full of delicious strawberries! And...it's super easy!


Ingredients:

Your favorite pie crust (pre-made or make your own) baked and cooled.


1 C. sugar

4T cornstarch

1 C. water

4T strawberry jell-o

2-3 C. fresh strawberries, sliced

whipped cream (optional)


Directions:

  1. In a saucepan; cook sugar, cornstarch, and water on medium heat until almost clear. Stir frequently to reduce scorching.
  2. While hot, add jell-o and stir to incorporate.
  3. Let cool to room temperature. (Can put in the fridge if you are impatient like me)
  4. Once cooled, add your sliced strawberries and stir.
  5. Pour mixture into your cooled pie shell. Let chill in fridge for about 30 minutes to an hour.
  6. Slice yourself a generous piece, add a dollop of whipped cream, and enjoy!
