This recipe is courtesy of Southern Plate. It is a very easy recipe that I somehow managed to mess up a bit. I think it was because I had to use regular silverware and not measuring spoons to measure the gelatin and cornstarch. We have a measuring spoon thief in the house and I couldn’t find anything over a 1/4 teaspoon. The glaze didn’t thicken up quite like it was supposed to bit it was delicious anyway.
Fresh Strawberry Pie
- 1 C sugar
- 1 C Water
- 3 T strawberry gelatin mix
- 1 Pint Fresh Strawberries
- 3 Heaping Tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 pie crust, cooked and cooled
- Combine sugar, cornstarch, and dry gelatin mix by stirring well. Add water and cook until thick and clear over medium high heat, stirring constantly to prevent scorching. Set aside and let cool.
- Wash and hull strawberries, cut in half and arrange over pie crust.
- When filling is cool, pour over strawberries and chill pie until ready to serve. Serve with whipped cream

Yeah, mine may not have looked too pretty but it tasted great.Southern Plate is one of my favorite places to visit. I think I make as many of Christy’s recipes as I do my own.
