Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 pounds fresh strawberries
• 1 (9 inch) deep-dish graham cracker pie crust
• 1 (8 ounce) tub whipped topping (such as Cool Whip®)
• 0.75 cup water
• 0.75 cup white sugar

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Slice 3/4 of the strawberries and place in a bowl.

Step 2

Puree remaining strawberries in a food processor until smooth and transfer to a saucepan over medium heat. Add sugar, water, cornstarch, and lemon juice and bring to a boil, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Stir continuously until as thick as jam, about 5 minutes more. Pour mixture over sliced strawberries in the bowl and stir to combine filling.

Step 3

Pour filling into pie shell and refrigerate until set, about 3 hours. Slice and serve with a dollop of whipped topping.
