Ingredients

• ¾ cup white sugar
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• ¾ cup water
• ¼ cup melted butter
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 ¼ cups crushed graham crackers
• 1 pound fresh strawberries, halved lengthwise
• ½ cup diced rhubarb

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Mix together the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter; press into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish. Line the bottom of the pie crust with 1 layer of strawberry halves.

Step 2

Place the remaining strawberries in a saucepan and crush (there should be about 1 cup of crushed berries); stir the rhubarb, sugar, water, and cornstarch into the crushed berries. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-low heat, stirring often, until the mixture thickens and becomes translucent. Turn off the heat, let the mixture stand until slightly cooled, about 2 minutes; stir in the lemon juice. Pour the mixture into the pie dish over the strawberry halves.

Step 3

Refrigerate until completely chilled, about 1 hour.
