Equipment

  • Sauce pan
  • Pie dish

Ingredients

  • 1 deep dish pie crust of choice I used a frozen Pillsbury one
  • 1/2 cup granulated sweetener (96g) I used Swerve
  • 3 Tbsp cornstarch (24g)
  • 1.5 cup water (360g)
  • 1 0.6-oz. package sugar-free strawberry Jello Gelatin mix
  • 2 cups freshly sliced strawberries (260g)
  • 2 cups light Cool Whip or whipped topping for topping/serving*

Instructions

  • If you wish to bake your pie crust, do that first. Cook for 8-10 minutes at 400 degrees F or according to package directions.
  • To medium saucepan, add the sweetener, cornstarch, water and jello mix. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently with a whisk, until thickened.
  • Remove from heat.
  • 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.
  • Pour the mixture into the pie crust and spread out evenly. 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!
