Let me be honest, I LOVE sweets!!! 😋but I don’t care for fruit pies too much, except strawberry and maybe apple. So when a coworker shared this strawberry pie 🥧 recipe years and years ago, I was stoked about how easy it was AND how good it was!!

So I know this is one recipe I had to share!

Ingredients:

1. Pie Shell:

Buy an already made pie shell, I like the frozen ones 👍🏻 but if you know how to make and roll out your own pie dough more power to you….and I’m jealous!

2. Strawberries

so I’m terrible, I don’t really know how many strawberries I use 😬, but I slice up and just fill the baked pie crust to the rim.

3. For the Glaze:

1 cup strawberries

1/2 cup of water

1 cup sugar

3 T of corn starch

Mix strawberries, water and sugar first. Then add the cornstarch.

I usually do this in a blender and this is an easy step for the kids help with.

Put over the stove at medium high heat, stirring constantly, until it is thick and clear.

Allow to cool.

Pour over strawberries in crust and chill for a few hours in the fridge.

Then grab some cool whip and enjoy friends 🙂

*one side note – the last few times I made this it came out sloppy, but it still tasted amazing! Just had to use a bowl instead 😉

Another recipe I plan on trying, but just have not had the time to try yet is this one I found on the Kraft Food and Family website.
