I promise this will be the best strawberry pie you ever put in your mouth. And the crust is the easiest part; again, I promise. Use this crust for other pies where you need a pre-baked crust. It couldn't be an easier crust. Read more . Try other fruits as well; peaches, blueberries. Use your imagination along with your favorite jello. Ingredients:
crust |
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour |
1 tsp salt |
1 tsp sugar |
2 tbs milk |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
filling |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
1/4 cup cornstarch |
dash salt |
1 1/2 cups water |
1 small box strawberry jell-o |
1 quart fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced to your desire |
Directions:
1. CRUST:
2. Preheat oven to 400
3. Put all the crust ingredients into a pie pan
4. Mix with a fork until combined and a dough forms
5. Use fork or fingers to press into pan to form pie crust
6. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes until lightly browned
7. FILLING:
8. In a saucepan, whisk sugar, cornstarch and salt to combine
9. Gradually add the water and then put on Med-High heat
10. Whisk continually, while bringing to a boil and once boiling whisk over heat for one minute to get to full thickness(be careful not to burn yourself if it splats up on you-I wear an oven mitt on my whisking hand)
11. Remove from heat and whisk in jello
12. Cool and add strawberries before it completely sets up
13. Put into the cooled pie shell and refrigerate until completely chilled - this will be hard
14. Serve with whipped cream or cool whip
