FRESH STRAWBERRY PIE



Fresh Strawberry Pie image

From a Houston Junior League cookbook, this is by far my favorite way to eat fresh strawberries. Quick, fresh, sweet and not at all gloppy. I think it's better when eaten right away than when chilled. If you purchase the red gloppy substance sold in your grocer's produce section to make strawberry shortcake or pie, please stop!!! This recipe can also be used as a quick strawberry shortcake or poundcake topping. You'll be suprised at the bright red color without food coloring, corn syrup or other nasty things that detract from beautiful fresh berries.

FRESH STRAWBERRY PIE



Fresh Strawberry Pie image

This pie is a celebration of perfectly ripe, summertime strawberries. Only two cups of the berries are cooked down into a quick jam, which holds the rest of the fruit together for a delightfully fresh pie. With a crunchy shortbread crust and a cloud of freshly whipped cream, it's reminiscent of strawberry shortcake - but maybe even better.

Categories     pies and tarts, dessert

Time 45m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

10 2/3 ounces/300 grams shortbread cookies (two 5 1/3-ounce packages)
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup/55 grams unsalted butter, melted
2 1/2 pounds/about 1 kilogram strawberries (about 8 to 10 cups), hulled
1/3 cup/65 grams granulated sugar
3 tablespoons strawberry preserves
1/4 cup/30 grams cornstarch
Pinch of kosher salt
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 cup/240 milliliters cold heavy cream
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare crust: Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a food processor, combine shortbread cookies, sugar, flour and salt and blend until you have fine crumbs. Transfer crumbs to a medium mixing bowl. Add butter and mix with a fork until crumbs are evenly moistened. Tip crumbs into a standard 9-inch pie plate and press them in an even layer on the bottom and up the sides of the plate. Bake until golden brown and set, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely.
  • Prepare filling: Cut each of the strawberries in quarters or eighths, if they are large. Transfer 2 cups berries to a small saucepan and crush completely with a potato masher. Set aside the remaining berries in a large bowl. Add the sugar, preserves, cornstarch, 1 tablespoon water and salt to the saucepan.
  • Bring strawberry mixture to a boil over medium heat and then cook it an additional 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add strawberry mixture and lemon juice to the strawberries in the bowl and stir to combine. Transfer to the prepared crust and gently tap it down into an even layer. Transfer to the fridge to set for at least 4 hours.
  • Just before serving, whip cream, confectioners' sugar and vanilla, if using, to soft peaks. Top pie with whipped cream.

GOLD MEDAL® FRESH STRAWBERRY PIE



Gold Medal® Fresh Strawberry Pie image

Just like what you see in the bakery window, except you made it yourself!

Provided by Betty Crocker Kitchens

Categories     Dessert

Time 4h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon shortening
2 to 3 tablespoons cold water
1 1/2 quarts (6 cups) strawberries, hulled
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 cup water
Red food color, if desired
1 package (3 oz) cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost cleans side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary).
  • Gather pastry into a ball. Shape into flattened round on lightly floured surface. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold, yet pliable. This allows the shortening to become slightly firm, which helps make the baked pastry more flaky. If refrigerated longer, let pastry soften slightly before rolling.
  • Heat oven to 475°F. With floured rolling pin, roll pastry into round 2 inches larger than upside-down 9-inch glass pie plate. Fold pastry into fourths; place in pie plate. Unfold and ease into plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pie plate. Fold and roll pastry under, even with plate; flute as desired. Prick bottom and side of pastry thoroughly with fork. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light brown. Cool on cooling rack.
  • In small bowl, mash enough strawberries to measure 1 cup. In 2-quart saucepan, mix sugar and cornstarch. Gradually stir in 1/2 cup water and mashed strawberries (add 1 or 2 drops food color if deeper red color is desired). Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir 1 minute; cool.
  • In medium bowl, beat cream cheese and lemon peel until smooth. Spread evenly in pie crust. Top with remaining strawberries. Pour cooked strawberry mixture over top. Refrigerate until set, about 3 hours. Store in refrigerator.

Provided by Carol

Categories     Desserts     Pies     No-Bake Pie Recipes

Time 2h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 cups fresh strawberries, divided
½ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 pinch salt
½ cup water
¼ cup water
¾ cup white sugar
3 egg whites
½ teaspoon cream of tartar
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust

Steps:

  • Wash and hull strawberries; slice into quarters. Place half the strawberries in a saucepan. Whisk together 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Toss strawberries with sugar mixture and add 1/2 cup water. Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Combine 1/4 cup water and 3/4 cup sugar in a saucepan. Heat over medium-high heat until sugar dissolves; you may stir until the mixture starts to boil, but don't stir once it's boiling (see Editor's Note). Boil, uncovered, until the mixture reaches the soft ball stage: 240 degrees F (115 degrees C), or until a small amount of mixture forms a soft ball when placed in cold water.
  • Meanwhile, combine egg whites, cream of tartar, and 1/8 teaspoon salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Mix on medium speed until medium-stiff peaks form.
  • When the sugar syrup reaches 240 degrees, remove it from the heat. With the mixer running on high speed, carefully pour the hot syrup in a steady stream between the beater and the side of the mixing bowl. Beat meringue mixture until cool. Stir in almond extract.
  • Mix the cooled cooked strawberries with the remaining fresh strawberries; pour into pie shell. Spoon meringue over strawberries. Chill at least 1 hour before serving.

Lady Rose's Fresh Strawberry Rhubarb Pie image

With Rhubarb being in season this time of year,& on sale, I knew I wanted to make a fresh Strawberry Rhubarb Pie.

So with about 10 cookbooks in hand I looked at many...

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 lb fresh rhubarb, cut into 1/2 inch pieces(3 cups)
1 qt fresh strawberries, washed, hulled & quartered
4 Tbsp all purpose flour
1 1/4 c granulated sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 tsp nutmeg
2 tsp vanilla bean paste, or vanilla extract
2 tsp lemon juice
2 Tbsp butter
1 pkg refrigerated double crust pie crust,(or make your own)
1 1/2-2 Tbsp white decorators sugar crystals, or use reg. sugar
1/4 c heavy whipping cream or (1 egg plus 1 tbs water beaten together)
4-6 c boiling hot water

Steps:

  • 1. PREHEAT OVEN TO 400 DEGREES F. This is the deep dish pie plate that I used.
  • 2. You will need about 1 1/4 pounds of fresh rhubarb.
  • 3. Trim and cut rhubarb into 1/2 inch pieces, should yield about 3 cups.
  • 4. Pour cut Rhubarb into medium size bowl,and cover with boiling water, and let sit for about 15 to 20 minutes, then drain.
  • 5. Wash hull and quarter 1 quart of fresh strawberries, then pour into a large bowl.Add drained rhubarb after the 15 to 20 minutes has elapsed.
  • 6. In a smaller bowl add the flour, sugar, nutmeg, eggs, vanilla bean paste OR VANILLA EXTRACT, & lemon juice.
  • 7. Beat till completely blended.
  • 8. Then pour mixture over the berries/rhubarb mixture, & carefully mix sugar mixture together with fruit. Then pour into prepared pie shell. Dot top with butter and then,
  • 9. Add top crust, and crimp edges of both top and bottom crust together. Brush top of crust with heavy whipping cream or egg wash, then sprinkle top with the decorators sugar or regular sugar, which ever you are using. Make 5-6 slashes in top of crust with sharp knife to allow steam to escape as it cooks.
  • 10. Place pie on cookie sheet, and bake in preheated 400 degrees F. oven and bake for 15 minutes, THEN REDUCE HEAT TO 350 DEGREES F. AND CONTINUE TO BAKE FOR AN ADDITIONAL 45 TO 50 MINUTES OR UNTIL GOLDEN BROWN HOT AND BUBBLY.
  • 11. Remove from oven and allow to cool then serve plain, or with whipped topping or your favorite ice cream.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh, ripe strawberries. If your strawberries are not very sweet, you may want to add a little more sugar to the filling.
  • To make sure your pie crust is flaky, be sure to use cold butter and ice water. You should also handle the dough as little as possible.
  • If you don't have a pie plate, you can use a 9-inch springform pan. Just be sure to trim the excess dough so that it doesn't hang over the sides of the pan.
  • To prevent the pie filling from boiling over, place a baking sheet on the oven rack below the pie.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help the filling to set and the crust to crisp up.

Conclusion:

This fresh strawberry pie is a classic summer dessert that is sure to please everyone. With its flaky crust, sweet and tangy filling, and fresh strawberry topping, it's the perfect way to enjoy the season's best fruit. So next time you have a hankering for a delicious and easy-to-make pie, give this recipe a try.
