Big Boy’s Fresh Strawberry Pie Recipe
Big Boy’s Fresh Strawberry Pie is a refreshing dessert featuring a crisp pie crust filled with juicy strawberries and a glossy strawberry glaze. It’s a simple, nostalgic treat perfect for spring and summer.
Ingredients
- 1 frozen pie crust
- 1¼ cups sugar
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1¼ cups water
- 3 tablespoons strawberry jelly
- 2 cups strawberries sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven and bake the frozen pie crust according to package instructions. Let it cool completely for about 30 minutes to prevent a soggy crust.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, whisk together sugar, cornstarch, and water. Stir constantly until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and whisk in the strawberry jelly until smooth. Let it cool to room temperature.
- Arrange sliced strawberries evenly in the cooled pie crust. You can layer them flat or stand them upright for a fuller appearance.
- Slowly pour the cooled glaze over the strawberries, ensuring it settles between the fruit.
- Refrigerate the pie for 3–4 hours to let the filling firm up and make slicing easier.
