Fresh Strawberry Pie

Oh my gosh, this is good, and easier than pie! It may sound unusual, but the taste is really good, and it is so nice having fresh, uncooked strawberries in a pie.

Ingredients:

  • 1 graham cracker or vanilla wafer crust, your preference
  • 1 quart fresh strawberries, stems removed, whole
  • 3/4 - 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cups water
  • 4 Tbsp. cornstarch
  • 1/2 pkg. strawberry Kool-Aid

Directions:

Mix the sugar, Kool-Aid, and cornstarch in a medium sauce pan. Stir in the water over medium heat. Stir until it's thick. Cool. Mix in the berries.

I found this recipe and made one. I used frozen berries (Bag) with aspartame to sweeten the strawberries, and put the frozen berries and sweetener in the fridge until everything was mixed well.

  • 3 Tbsp. cornstarch
  • 2 Tbsp. light corn syrup
  • pinch salt
  • 2 tsp. strawberry gelatin

  • 1 baked pie shell (8 inch)
