Number Of Ingredients 6

1 - 9 inch pie crust baked and cooled or baked graham cracker crust, your own or premade
2 heaping quarts fresh strawberries...smaller berries are better for filling the pie shell nicely
3/4 cup sugar
3 Tbsp. corn starch
1/2 cup cold water
1 Tbsp. lemon juice

Steps:

  • Hull and wash berries and gently pat dry on paper towels. Crush enough berries with a potato masher to measure 1 cup. Set aside. Arrange remaining berries in pie shell, points up, til pie shell is filled and a nice height. Put crushed berries in a small saucepan with sugar, stirring to combine. Dissolve cornstarch in cold water and add to berries in pot. Cook over low to medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick and clear. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice. Stir until slightly cooled, about 3 to 5 mins. Spoon slowly over berries in pie shell, covering all berries and allowing mixture to fill the nooks and crannies. Chill for 2 hours til set.
