Ingredients
- 1 gluten-free pie crust
- 3 pints+ (6-7 cups) strawberries (fresh or frozen) - measure once chopped
- 3/4 cup granulated cane sugar
- 3 tablespoons gfJules™ All Purpose Flour sifted
- 1 Tbs. lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon Grand Marnier (or orange juice)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Prepare the gluten free pie crust according to my recipe, then prick the bottom of the crust with a fork in several places to help keep it from puffing up during the bake. Lay a sheet of parchment paper on top of the bottom of the crust, then gently fill with pie weights or dried beans to keep it weighted down while baking.
- Bake for 20 minutes, then remove the pie weights and parchment liner. Brush the crust edges with milk or egg wash (1 egg mixed with 1 tablespoon water).
- Reduce oven temperature to 375°F and bake for 10-12 more minutes. Remove to cool on a wire rack.
- Measure out 7-8 cups of whole strawberries (once chopped, this will measure approximately 6 cups of berries, depending on the size of the whole berries).
- Place half into a large stove-top pan and mash or chop, adding the sugar and gfJules™ All Purpose Flour to the mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring to prevent from burning for at least 5 minutes until thickened. Slowly add the lemon juice and Grand Marnier. Remove from the heat and let the mixture cool.
- Chop or slice remaining berries to bite-size pieces and stir into the mixture. Once cooled, pour into the prepared pie crust and freeze before serving. Remove to thaw slightly before cutting to serve.
- Top with fresh mint, yogurt, whipped cream or ice cream, or serve on its own.
