easy strawberry crumb pie

Updated on Jul 24, 2012

I found this recipe on the internet actually as a cherry pie to begin with. Then I tweaked it to my own style and made it strawberry instead. You can also use blueberry instead of strawberry according to this recipe. Either way, it comes out tasting like a strawberry or blueberry poptart! Heat it up and add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and you won't be able to stop eating it. Will post pictures very soon!! ;p

How To Make easy strawberry crumb pie

  • Step 1
    Drain both cans of strawberries; set a colander on top of another bowl so excess juice can drain into the bowl. Reserve 1/2 cup strawberry juice.
  • Step 2
    Make sure pie crust is prepared and set inside pie plate. Evenly distribute strained strawberries into crust.
  • Step 3
    In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup reserved juice, 1 1/3 cup sugar, 1/4 cup flour and vanilla. Heat to a boil, stirring constantly with a whisk; boil 2 min.
  • Step 4
    Pour sugar mixture over the strawberries.
  • Step 5
    In another bowl, combine flour and sugar; cut in butter. Use a pasty cutter or fork to mix until pea sized balls form.
  • Step 6
    Spread crumb mixture on top of the sugar mixture. Top with "Sugar in the Raw" if you would like. It gives it a nice sparkle; its good for looks.
  • Step 7
    Bake 35-40mins at 425 degrees. (I do recomend covering the crust with foil to avoid burning.) Cool completely before serving.
