Instructions

In a medium saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch. Whisk to combine.
Add water and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and becomes translucent (about 5–7 minutes).
Remove from heat and stir in the strawberry gelatin until fully dissolved. Let the mixture cool for 10–15 minutes.
Arrange the fresh strawberries in the pre-baked pie crust.
Pour the cooled gelatin mixture evenly over the strawberries, making sure all the berries are coated.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or until set.

Slice and serve with whipped cream if desired.

Notes

Use the freshest, ripest strawberries you can find for the best flavor.
You can use a graham cracker crust for a no-bake option.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
