Strawberry Pie is a family favorite passed down from DH's grandmother, who was a pastor's wife in Texas. She and I made it together once, about 20 years ago, after spending the afternoon picking fresh strawberries. Now my daughter, her great-granddaughter, helps me make it during strawberry season. Always a treat! Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups flour |
1 cup sugar, plus |
2 tablespoons sugar |
2 tablespoons milk |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
2 tablespoons light corn syrup |
3 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 cup water |
3 tablespoons strawberry gelatin |
1 quart strawberry, washed and hulled |
whipped cream (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
2. Mix together flour, 2 Tablespoons sugar, milk, salt and oil.
3. Press mixture into a 9-inch pie plate.
4. Bake for 10 minutes.
5. Set crust aside to cool.
6. In a sauce pan, heat 1 cup sugar, corn syrup, cornstarch and water until clear and thickened.
7. Stir in strawberry gelatin, cool.
8. Fold strawberries into the cooled gelatin mixture.
9. Pour into crust and chill for at least 2 hours.
10. Cut into wedges and serve.
11. Great with whipped cream.
12. Refridgerate leftovers (if there any).
