Strawberry Glaze Pie
“This pie will not keep well, I’m sure, but I never had an opportunity to find out, as there has never been any left over from a meal!”
Ingredients
Instructions
Hull and wash the strawberries, and drain well. Cook sugar, water, cornstarch, and ½ cup crushed berries until thick and clear. Add butter, and food coloring, if desired, to make a bright red glaze. Fill the cooled pie shell with remaining whole berries, saving 4 or 5 of the largest berries to use as a garnish. Pour cooked sauce over berries in pie shell and refrigerate until ready to serve. (The glaze thickens as it cools.) Garnish pie with whipped cream and large berries.

Bake at 400 degrees F for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Enough for 2 single crusts.
