Dreamy Summertime Strawberry Pie
What could be more quintessential to summer than a slice of strawberry pie bursting with the sweet, juicy flavor of sun-ripened berries? This easy-to-make dessert is a beloved staple in our household. We prefer a buttery graham cracker crust, but a classic pie shell is equally delicious. I can't wait for you to taste this delightful treat!
Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 3 ounces strawberry Jell-O gelatin dessert
- 3-4 cups strawberries, halved washed and hulled
- 1 9-inch graham cracker crust or pie shell (cooled)
Instructions
- If using a pie shell, bake according to package directions and let cool.
