Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- All-purpose flour for surface
- 2 batches store-bought or homemade pie dough
- 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
- 1 or more tablespoons whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a small saucepan over low heat, combine strawberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook, stirring frequently, until thickened (~10 minutes).
- Roll out one batch of pie dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch cast iron skillet. Press dough into skillet, covering bottom and sides.
- Pour thickened strawberry filling into prepared crust.
- Roll out second batch of pie dough and cover filling completely. Cut four slits in the center for steam to escape.
- Trim excess dough, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Fold top crust edges over bottom crust and crimp edges with a fork.
- Bake pie for 25-30 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
- Cool on a wire rack for 20-25 minutes.
- Whisk confectioners’ sugar, milk, and vanilla to make glaze. Adjust milk for desired consistency.
- Drizzle glaze over cooled pie and sprinkle with sprinkles if desired.
- Chill pie in refrigerator 1-2 hours until glaze is set before serving.
Notes
- Use raspberries or blueberries instead of strawberries for a berry mix.
- Substitute brown sugar or sugar alternatives for granulated sugar if preferred.
- Tapioca starch can replace cornstarch as a thickener.
- Use non-dairy milk and vegan pie dough for a vegan version.
- Freeze unbaked pie wrapped tightly for up to 3 months; bake from frozen, adding extra baking time.
- Avoid overworking dough to maintain flaky crust.
- Brush crust with egg wash before baking for a shiny golden finish.
- Reheat slices gently in oven or microwave to keep crust crisp.
