Ingredients
- 1 refrigerated pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, cold and diced
- 1 large egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 2 tbsp whole milk (for glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a pie dish. Trim excess crust and prick the bottom.
- In a saucepan, combine strawberries, sugar, flour, and vanilla over medium heat. Cook until softened and slightly thickened (5-7 minutes). Let cool.
- Pour cooled strawberry filling into the prepared crust. Cover with another crust layer, sealing edges tightly and cutting slits for steam to escape.
- Brush the top with egg wash and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
- Mix powdered sugar and milk for glaze until smooth. Drizzle over cooled pie before serving.
