When strawberry season starts my favourite pie to make is a fresh strawberry pie in a shortbread crust! So quick to whip up and it is delicious!!
Shortbread Crust
1 cup flour (I use Howick light spelt)
⅓ cup butter
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
In a mixing bowl mix together until crumbly, with no pieces bigger than a pea. Press into a 9 inch pie pan. Bake in preheated oven at 425F until golden. 10 mins. Cool.
Meanwhile make filling.
Mix in a pot:
½ cup honey
1 cup strawberries, mashed
½ cup orange juice or water
Bring to a boil and thicken with 3-4 tbsp cornstarch mixed in a little water. Set aside to cool.
When cooled fold in 4 cups whole strawberries and pour into baked shortbread crust.
Chill for 3 hours in the fridge and ENJOY!!
