Ingredients
- 1 9" frozen pie crust, baked
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1 lb strawberries, sliced
- 1 3 oz pkg strawberry jello
Instructions
- Prepare the pie crust according to the package directions. Once baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool completely.
- In a large saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium heat. Gradually whisk in the cornstarch, making sure it blends smoothly without forming lumps.
- Continue stirring constantly for about 4–5 minutes, until the mixture thickens and becomes slightly translucent. Remove the pan from the heat, then whisk in the strawberry jello until it is fully dissolved. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.
- After cooling, add the sliced strawberries and gently mix until they are evenly coated. Transfer the filling into the prepared pie crust.
- Refrigerate the pie for 2–3 hours, or until it is fully set. Serve with whipped cream if desired.
