  • 1Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  • 3Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is lightly browned and smells toasted, about 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool.
  • 4Soak gelatin in cold water for 3 minutes. Heat the water and gelatin in the top of a double boiler set over simmering water, stirring frequently, until gelatin is completely dissolved.
  • 5Beat whipping cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl until soft peaks form.
  • 6Stir strawberries and 1/3 cup sugar together in a bowl. Pour gelatin mixture over strawberries. Gently fold in whipped cream until incorporated. Pour filling into baked pie shell and chill in the refrigerator until set, at least 2 hours.
Footnotes
  • Cook's Note:
  • Do not over-whip or add extra sugar to the cream; it gets gritty and the sugar with the strawberries is enough.
