Description

This Glazed Strawberry Pie is a refreshing, no-bake dessert that highlights the natural sweetness of fresh strawberries. The filling is a simple yet elegant glaze made by gently cooking a portion of the berries with water and cornstarch to create a silky, translucent coating. The remaining whole berries are nestled into a pre-baked crust and spooned with the warm glaze, creating a beautiful contrast in texture and flavor. It is light, fruity, and perfect for summer gatherings or as a make-ahead treat for brunch. The pie chills for a few hours to set, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully. Serve it as is for a clean, bright finish, or add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence. Its an easy, impressive dessert that feels homemade and sophisticated.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Wash and hull the strawberries.
  2. Reserve 3 cups of whole strawberries for the pie filling.
  3. Puree or mash the remaining 1 cup of strawberries in a small bowl.
  4. In a small saucepan, combine the strawberry puree, 1/3 cup cold water, 1/4 cup cold water, and a pinch of salt.
  5. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly until the mixture comes to a gentle boil.
  6. In a small separate bowl, whisk the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water until smooth.
  7. Slowly pour the cornstarch mixture into the boiling strawberry mixture while stirring continuously.
  8. Continue to cook and stir for 1-2 minutes until the glaze thickens slightly and becomes glossy.
  9. Remove the saucepan from heat and let the glaze cool for a few minutes.
  10. Arrange the 3 cups of reserved whole strawberries in the baked 9-inch pie crust.
  11. Spoon the warm strawberry glaze evenly over the berries in the pie shell.
  12. Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours to chill and set.
  13. Slice and serve chilled.
