Instructions
Prebake The Crust
- Preheat oven to 400℉ or as directed on the package. The package should include directions for a single-crust pie.
- The refrigerated crust must sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes or as directed on the package.
- Carefully place the crust in the pie plate. If you find any holes, dip your finger in water and rub it around the hole. Stretch the crust over the hole and try to work the crust together.
- Bake for 10 minutes or as directed on the package. If you notice any bubbles while baking, gently press them down with a spoon.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool to room temperature.
- Reduce oven temperature to 375℉.
Prepare The Filling
- In large bowl whisk together the eggs, cream, strawberry puree, and vanilla extract. Blend gently. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the flour, sugar and cornmeal. Using a spoon or spatula, blend until thoroughly mixed.
- Pour the mixture into the cooled, prebaked crust.
Bake
- Bake at 375℉ for 45-50 minutes.
- Pie is done when the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. The center of the pie should not be jiggly.
Cooling Time
- Allow to sit on wire cooling rack for 2 hours or until the pie plate is cool to the touch.
