Fresh Strawberry Pie
In case you were wondering…life is crazy with 3 kids! Â So much more crazier than I would have ever imagined! Â But everyday gets a little easier, sort of. Â So hopefully, one day I can get used to it. Â It will be much easier when I can get 8 straight un-interrupted hours of sleep, but that’s a ways down the road. Motherhood is also a beautiful, beautiful thing. Â And I treasure every second I have with my beautiful children. Â I’m so lucky. Â And luckily I have an awesome husband to share it with!
I made this delicious Fresh Strawberry Pie for Father’s Day and I cleaned it up today (sorry hubby). Â In about 2 minutes. Â I couldn’t stop eating it! Â How in the world am I ever going to get off this baby weight? Â Anyways, like I said, this was soooo good. Â I found some really sweet strawberries and paired it with a homemade graham cracker crust (so much better than store bought). Top it with some fresh whipped cream and you’ve got yourself a winner of a dessert. Â Give it a try! Â Have a great week everyone!
Fresh Strawberry Pie
1 (9 inch) graham cracker crust pie shell,
2 pints fresh strawberries
3/4 cup white sugar
1 1/2 Tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup boiling water
3 Tablespoons strawberry flavored gelatin
In a saucepan, mix together the sugar and corn starch; make sure to blend corn starch in completely. Add boiling water, and cook over medium heat until mixture thickens. Remove from heat. Add gelatin mix, and stir until smooth. Let mixture cool to room temperature. Place strawberries in pie shell; position berries with points facing up. Pour cooled gel mixture over strawberries. Refrigerate until set. Serve with whipped cream, if desired.
Graham Cracker Crust
1 1/2 cups finely ground graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, melted butter until well blended . Press mixture into an 8 or 9 inch pie plate. Bake at 375 degrees for 7 minutes. Cool. If recipe calls for unbaked pie shell, just chill for about 1 hour.
Meet our newest Chef…
Meet baby Maddison. 9 LONG months of baking has brought us this little angel and I wouldn’t trade her for anything. At 4 days old she let me sleep 4 hours in a row and hasn’t stopped since. She is perfect in every way and I am so glad to finally have her here. Thank you for being so patient with me and my lack of posting. Hopefully once she is letting me sleep all through the night and I can learn to juggle 3 rowdy kids, I will be able to post more often, but for now, I appreciate your loyalty!
Please head on over to Cafe Zupas to learn more about these delicious Blueberry Scones! You won’t be sorry! Have a great week everyone!
This is Steph’s husbby just letting everyone that follows her blog know that she had our little baby girl this thursday. Â Little baby Maddison weighed in at 8lbs 3oz. Â Both Steph and Maddi are doing fine. Â Steph is one terrific girl and I am very luck to have her and our latest addition to our family. Â I also wanted to say thank you to all those who supported her over the last 2 months. Â I know that she really appreciates you! Â I am sure she will be back on here feet cooking up a storm soon. Â
