Serving Size: 8
Cooking Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
- 1.5 Cups crushed pecan shortbread cookies
- 0.25 Cups blanched slivered almonds
- 0.33 Cups butter, melted
- 6 Cups fresh strawberries, hulled
- 1 Cup white sugar
- 3 Tablespoons cornstarch
- 0.33 Cups water
- 0.25 Teaspoon salt
- 0.5 Teaspoon almond extract
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together the crushed pecan shortbread cookies, blanched slivered almonds, and melted butter. Press the mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake for 8 minutes and let it cool completely.
- Mash enough strawberries to make 1 cup. In a 2-quart saucepan, combine the sugar and cornstarch. Stir in the mashed strawberries and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and reaches a full boil (about 8 to 15 minutes). Boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
- Stir in the salt and almond extract. Allow the mixture to cool for 10 minutes.
- Fill the baked crust with the remaining fresh strawberries. Pour the cooked strawberry mixture over the fresh berries.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 3 hours. Garnish with whipped cream and walnuts if desired before serving.
