STRAWBERRY PRETZEL PIE
By shygirl
Sweet, shiny strawberries in a sweet-salty pretzel pie. A summertime treat!
Ingredients
- 4 cups Pretzel sticks
- 1 stick (8 tbsp.) Butter, melted
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 3 tbsp. cornstarch
- 1 pkg. (3.5 oz.) Strawberry flavored Jello
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 3 pints of strawberries, hulled and halved.
- Unsweetened Whipped Cream
Preparation
Step 1
For the Pretzel crust: Preheat oven to 350 deg.
Crush the pretzels in a large resealable plastic bag with a rolling pin. Mix in a bowl with the butter and brown sugar. Press into a pie pan and bake for 8 minutes. Remove and set aside to cool.
For the strawberry filling: Put 1 1/2 cup water, the granulates sugar, cornstarch and gelatin powder in a saucepan. Stir together and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and cook until it starts to thicken, about 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Put the strawberries in a bowl and pour over the sauce, gently tossing together. Allow to sit for 5 to 7 minutes, then carefully pile the coated strawberries into the cooled pie crust. Spoon over a little left over sauce if needed, and refrigerate, uncovered, for 4 hours.
Cut into slices and serve with whipped cream. (Unsweetened is nice because the pie is so sweet!)
