This pie is my specialty. It's fairly simple to make but so dramatic to serve. The ultimate taste of spring, this luscious pie has such a big, fresh berry taste. I've had many requests to bring it to gatherings. -Janet Mooberry, Peoria, Illinois

I had some trouble getting the crust to brown evenly, but the pie still tasted great.

The pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference.

This pie is the perfect way to use up all those fresh strawberries from the farmers market.

I was a little skeptical about using a pre-made crust, but it worked out great. The pie was still delicious and so much easier to make.

This strawberry pie was a hit at my last party! The filling was perfectly sweet and tart, and the crust was flaky and delicious.
