How this recipe comes together
Making this pie is a straightforward and enjoyable process. Begin by arranging fresh strawberries in a pre-baked pie crust, creating a beautiful base. You’ll then whip up a sweet, glossy mixture on the stovetop with water, sugar, cornstarch, and gelatin, which adds that iconic strawberry flavor. After pouring this luscious layer over the strawberries, a little time in the refrigerator allows it to set perfectly. Finally, top each slice with a dollop of whipped cream for an irresistible finish.
