Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup water
¾ cup white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons cornstarch
¼ teaspoon red food coloring
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup butter
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 quart fresh strawberries, hulled

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, combine water, white sugar, salt, cornstarch and food coloring (optional). Bring to a boil, and cook for about 5 minutes or until thickened. Set aside to cool. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C.)

This pie was a hit! I made it for a potluck and it was gone in minutes. The crust was flaky and the filling was sweet and tart. I will definitely be making this again.
