Ingredients
-
1 (9-inch) graham cracker pie crust
-
1 (6 oz) package strawberry gelatin
-
2 cups boiling water
-
1 cup cold water
-
2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
-
Optional topping: whipped cream or whipped topping
Instructions
In a medium bowl, add strawberry gelatin and pour in boiling water. Stir for 2 minutes until completely dissolved.
Stir in cold water and mix well. Let the mixture cool slightly at room temperature for about 10–15 minutes. Do not let it set.
Wash, hull, and slice the strawberries evenly. Pat them dry to remove excess moisture.
Arrange the sliced strawberries evenly in the graham cracker crust. Carefully pour the cooled gelatin mixture over the strawberries, ensuring they are fully covered.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the gelatin is completely set and firm. Slice and serve chilled.
Notes
-
Allow gelatin to cool slightly before pouring to prevent floating fruit.
-
Pat strawberries dry to keep gelatin clear.
-
Do not rush chilling time—proper set is essential.
-
Keep pie refrigerated until serving.
