I thought this pie was quite good. HOWEVER. . .the filling only needed to be cooked for 2-3 minutes, not a full 10. I also added vanilla to my second one which made the flavor much deeper. I will be using this recipe from now on.

This is a wonderful recipe; but eat it up quick, it gets watery after a day or two in the frig!

I folled the instructions using a Pillsbury pie crust (not frozen) and it was one of the best desserts I've ever made. It was so easy and really quick to make but you'd never know by the taste of it.

I used "Shorbread Crust" from this site and then followed this recipe as stated except for these following changes: I used 4 cups strawberries total. 1 cup uncooked on the base and 3 cups as part of the sauce mixture. I didnt have 1 cup granulated sugar so I used 2 cups powdered sugar instead (which maybe helped better solidify the sauce since powdered sugar is more thick and pasty when mixed w/ liquid.) Instead of 3/4 c water I used 3/4 c grape juce (I personality just like lots of flavor). And then just to note, 3 Tablespoons of cornstarch is perfect. This was so good Usually I make "Strawberry Glazed Pie" but didnt have jello so made this one instead and I'm glad I did. Both are super good though.

Wonderful and yummy pie! I don't care for the "gel" to overwhelm the fresh berries, so I used two pounds of strawberries for one pie. I took the advice of several others and only mashed 1/4 of the strawberries. I also cut the sugar and water down to 2/3 cup each. It was sweet enough for us! I tossed the fresh strawberries with the cooked mixture before putting them in the pie plate so everything got covered. I used a graham cracker crust which was a great alternative to a traditional pie crust. Enjoy!

Excellent! I used just over two pounds of fresh strawberries and the majority of them went into the pie whole. I mashed maybe a forth of the strawberries, added 3/4 cup sugar, and used the given amount of corn starch and water. It took only 5 minutes to thicken on the lowest setting my burner has. I let the mixure cool slightly before pooring it on the strawberries. It doesn't set too hard nor too runny, perfect. It was still pretty sweet so I may bring it down another notch on the sugar. Between 4 adults and 4 kids, the pie was completely eaten. We loved it so much we'll make it again next weekend. Strawberry season is almost over, we want to enjoy it as much as possible.

Delicious and simple recipe. Only thing I didn't like was the way it looked, think I prefer a clear glaze over the fresh strawberries, would have been much more appealing and attractive.

This was fantastic. I added a little less sugar (my berries were a bit on the sweet side, and I was already using a sweet crust), about 2/3 cup, but other than that I followed the recipe exactly. After boiling the sugar mixture for about ten minutes -- enough time to prep the berries and snack on a few! -- I poured it into the bowl of berries and mixed everything together. Some of the photos of this recipe showed an unappetizing puddle of goo on top of the berries in the pie, and I didn't want that effect; I also wanted to make sure that all of the berries were coated in the fantastic glaze. After mixing, I just poured everything into the pie shell, covered in plastic wrap, and refrigerated overnight. Perfect! This was the favorite of Easter brunch, with everyone raving. I barely got a slice for myself, and I have to agree: awesome!

This was my first attempt at a fruit pie with a roll-out dough. I tried this because of the simplicity of it and it worked out wonderfully. I did start with 1/2 cup of sugar and used 3/4 cup as opposed to the 1 cup in the recipe. Adjust according to taste and the sweetness of the berries. It didn't take the 10 minutes to get thick either- I may have left it on for about 5 minutes and it worked out perfectly. This is definitely a keeper and have requests for the recipe already! Thanks for sharing.

The pie tasted good, but it wasn't phenomenal like I was expecting from the other reviews. Maybe it is because I changed the recipe according to the other reviews. Instead of half mashed and half in the shell I used 3/4 in the shell and 1/4 mashed. I cut back on the sugar and it was still extremely sweet. Maybe it would be best made as the recipe calls for.

Pie turned out to be quite good. The cooked topping was cloudy and I prefer a clear glaze. Company enjoyed it and I will make again.

I thought this was a good base recipe. I did change it up a bit and it still came out wonderful. Instead of the 1 cup of sugar I used 1/8 of a cup of Agave. You can get Agave now in your local grocery store in the health food section or at your local health food store.

This was really good. I would suggest adding some red food coloring (the kind for tinting frosting) to the cooked strawberries. Otherwise, after you cook the strawberries, they lose their color and look dull and unappetizing.

This recipe was a hit to everyone who tasted it. So fresh and delicious. I made it with a slightly salty pie crust, and that was a really nice contrast to the sweet berries.
