About This Recipe

If there was a pie that screamed summer, this strawberry pie with jello would be it! It’s perfectly light and sweet and really hits the spot on a hot summer day!

This Strawberry Pie comes together quickly thanks to store-bought pie crust which I honestly think pairs delicious with it! But if you really wanted to fancy it up, you can make your own homemade flakey pie crust.

Top with some Cool Whip or homemade whipped topping and enjoy!

Ingredients and Substitutions

  • Strawberry gelatin mix – I used sugar-free Jello.
  • Strawberries
  • Whipped topping – I used light Cool Whip.

How To Make

The full printable recipe is below, but let me walk you through the process so you know what to expect when you’re making it!

Pie crust before being baked.

1. If you wish to bake your own pie crust, do that first. Otherwise, cook your pre-made crust for 8-10 minutes at 400 degrees F or according to package directions. 

Ingredients for strawberry mixture in a saucepan.

2. To medium saucepan, add the sweetener, cornstarch, water and Jello mix.

3. Cook over medium heat and stir frequently with a whisk until thickened. Remove from heat. 

Sliced strawberries added to the mixture in the saucepan.

4. Allow the mixture to cool slightly. Then, stir in the strawberries. Allowing it to cool for 5 minutes or so helps keep the strawberries pretty!

5. Pour the mixture into the pie crust and spread out evenly.

6. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours or until the pie has set before slicing. Before serving, top with Cool Whip! You can spread the Cool Whip across the whole top or serve each slice individually with a dollop! 

The Pie Crust

I used a pre-made pie crust to save a good chunk of time making this recipe. But there are ton of different pie crust options you could use for this recipe, whether you want to do pre-made or make your own at home.

  • Frozen pie crusts – I used Pillsbury deep dish.
  • Grandma’s perfect homemade pie crust – like this recipe here.
  • Graham cracker crust – store bought or homemade.
  • Oatmeal pie crust – like this recipe here.
  • Flaky pie crust – like this recipe here.
  • Gluten-free pie crust – like this recipe here.
  • Low carb pie crust – like this recipe here.

FAQ: Strawberry Pie With Jello

Can I bake my own pie crust?

Absolutely! I used a pre-made pie crust for convenience, but if you want to make your own, go ahead.

What should I pair with this Strawberry Pie?

I love topping it with Cool Whip or a homemade whipped topping. You could also serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Can I make this pie in advance?

Yes! I think it actually tastes better having set in the fridge overnight.
