How To Make Strawberry Pie
Note: This is a summary. The full printable recipe card and step by step video is at the bottom of this post.
- In a sauce pot, add sugar, water, strawberry gelatin (I used Jell-O), and corn starch.
- Whisk until the corn starch is dissolved.
- Place the pot over medium heat.
- Cook until the liquid boils and becomes thick.
- Remove the pot from the heat.
- Remove the stems from one pint of strawberries and cut into quarters.
- Add the chopped strawberries to the gelatin.
- Stir to coat the strawberries in the liquid.
- Pour the strawberry mixture into a prepared 9 inch graham cracker pie crust (I used Keebler).
- Spread the strawberries out evenly.
- Refrierate for at least 3 hours until the gelatin is firm.
- Serve cold topped with whipped cream (I used Reddi Wip).
How To Store
This pie can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days before the gelatin will start seeping into the pie crust making it soggy.

This is a wonderful recipe! I think I would use sugar free Jello, and instead of graham cracker crust, sugar cookie or shortbread instead.
