I love strawberries.  I’ve tried growing strawberries, but the wildlife in my yard always outsmarts me and eats the ripe ones before I can get to them.  We always have at least a pint in the fridge at all times.  I love strawberry shortcake, but it is not my families favorite.  So I tried this recipe.

I have made GF pie crust from a box and it was good, but for this one I made my own.

I like to use just rice flour for this crust recipe.  The crust hold up well and is not soggy.

The best part of this recipe is the goo.  It makes lots of goo! Plenty to lick off the spoon and maybe mix with some So Delicious Coco Whip.

Most of my house hold liked this recipe.  You can’t always please everyone, but I consider most a win. I hope you enjoy this refreshing Strawberry Pie.  -Susan
