Ingredients

Scale

Pie

  • 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade, enough for a 9-inch pie)
  • 1 cup strawberry jam
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 12 teaspoons milk or water (to thin glaze)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pie Crust: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place one pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, pressing gently to fit.
  2. Fill with Jam: Spread the strawberry jam evenly over the bottom pie crust, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edge.
  3. Top Crust: Place the second crust over the jam-filled base. You can create a lattice pattern by cutting strips of the second crust or use it whole. Seal the edges by pinching or crimping them together.
  4. Apply Egg Wash and Sugar: Brush the top crust with the beaten egg to help it brown beautifully. Sprinkle sugar evenly on top for a slight crunch and sweetness.
  5. Bake the Pie: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the crust turns golden brown and the jam is bubbling.
  6. Prepare Glaze: While the pie cools, mix powdered sugar with 1-2 teaspoons of milk or water until smooth and drizzleable.
  7. Glaze the Pie: Once the pie has cooled slightly, drizzle the glaze over the top to add a sweet finishing touch. Allow the glaze to set before serving.

Notes

  • Use chilled pie crust for a flakier texture.
  • If the edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil during baking.
  • Allow the pie to cool before slicing to prevent the jam from oozing out.
  • The glaze can be flavored with a drop of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
