Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Fresh Strawberry Pie without Jell-O.
Step 1
Begin by slicing three-quarters of the fresh strawberries and placing them in a spacious mixing bowl, allowing their vibrant color to shine.
Step 2
In a food processor, blend the remaining strawberries until they transform into a smooth purée.
Step 3
Transfer this luscious purée to a medium saucepan set over medium heat.
Step 4
To this, add sugar, water, cornstarch, and a splash of lemon juice, stirring the mixture gently.
Step 5
Bring it to a gentle boil, cooking for about five minutes while stirring frequently to ensure even consistency.
Step 6
Keep stirring as the mixture thickens to a delightful jam-like texture, which should take an additional five minutes.
Step 7
Once thickened, pour this sweet concoction over the sliced strawberries in the bowl, gently folding to combine the filling.
Step 8
Next, pour the strawberry filling into a prepared graham cracker crust, then refrigerate until it sets, which will take around three hours.
Step 9
When the time is up, slice into this beautiful pie and serve it with a generous dollop of whipped topping, creating a perfect balance of flavors that will delight your taste buds.

Enjoy the sweet taste of summer in every bite!.
