The Southern Strawberry Pie is one of the simplest yet tastiest desserts you can make. It's easy to make but if you follow some of the recipes featured here, you'll make the most of the ingredients and produce a dessert that's memorable for your guests. Then if you've got any left over, you'll be able to keep this dessert fresh in the fridge for up to five days if you keep it under foil or plastic wrap. If you make a big enough pie, you can wrap the strawberry pie tightly in aluminum or plastic wrap and freeze.
Traditional Recipe
The easiest recipe to make is the traditional one. You'll need to buy two nine-inch crusts, ground cinnamon, white sugar, all-purpose flour, butter, and fresh strawberries. To begin with, preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Then place one of the crusts in a pie pan. Now mix one and 1/4 cup sugar, 1/3 cup flour, and 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon. Now's the time to mix in the strawberries. When it's all combined nicely, pour into the pastry-lined pan. Now cover with the other crust, and cut slits into the top of it. Seal and flute the edges before baking for 35 to 45 minutes. The crust will be slightly browned when your dessert is ready.
Georgia Strawberry Pie
This pie has four layers: a pie crust, a cream cheese layer, a layer of strawberries, and a final layer of whipped cream. The prep time for this dessert is just 20 minutes, but you'll need two hours and 20 minutes to bake the pie. This pie, which serves eight, is easy to make. Just bake the pie crust to the directions on its packet, and while that's baking mix cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until it's soft. Spread that mixture into the crust once it's been allowed to cool. Now store it in the fridge until it's ready for the strawberries. To make the sauce, mash one and 1/2 cups of berries with sugar and 1/3 cup water and bring to a boil. Now add cornstarch with one tablespoon water until it thickens, and it's ready to be poured over the pie.
Strawberry Jell-O
You won't need fresh strawberries to make this dessert. After baking the pie crust to the instructions on the packet, bring water, sugar, and cornstarch to the boil until the mixture's thick and clear. That will only take five minutes. Now turn off the heat, and add some lemon zest and the strawberry Jell-O. Mix it well and then cool it in a large bowl. You can add in fresh strawberries now if you like but you'll still make a nice pie if you choose not to. Pour everything into the pie and store in the fridge before serving with whipped cream that's pipped around the edges.
Shortbread Crust
So far, each recipe has used a premade pie crust but this recipe uses shortbread. To make the crust, combine flour, sugar and cold butter cubes in a food processor. You'll know it's ready when there are no butter lumps left. Form it into a ball and put it in the fridge for 30 minutes. Then press it into a pie plate before baking at 425 degrees. Now you can use part of one of the other recipes to make the strawberry mixture that tops the pie.
Low-Calorie Pie
Most of the pie recipes here make deserts that have 375 to 400 calories per slice. If that's too much for you, why not try this low-calorie strawberry pie? One of the ways your dish has less sugar comes from the fact that you substitute the strawberries for other lower calorie berries. You should still bake with sugar, as sweeteners and other substitutes won't work, so there are no calorie savings to be made with the sugar, but bake with a vegan butter substitute and you'll make a delicious low-calorie pie.
