Baked Strawberry Pie Recipe

Step 1

In a large bowl, mix flour and salt together. Using a fork, pastry cutter, or a standing mixer (on low), cut the butter into the flour, a little at a time, mixing until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 2

Add in the ice water, 1 Tbsp at a time, until the dough just comes together. (I used approx. 9 Tbsp.)

Step 3

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Shape the dough into 2 balls, then flatten each into the shape of a disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 4

Mix the strawberries, sugar, orange juice, orange zest, cornstarch, and flour together.

Step 5

Set aside.

Step 6

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and set out your 9” or 10” deep dish pie plate.

Step 7

On a floured surface, roll out 1 pie dough disc into a large circle (about 1/4” thick).

Step 8

Transfer the dough to your pie plate. Cut off any excess dough, making sure to leave about 1/4”-1/2” of overhang (this will help you crimp the edges of your pie).

Step 9

Pour half of the strawberry filling into the pie crust. Dot the filling with the butter cubes. Then, pour the remaining filling on top, spreading in an even layer.

Step 10

Roll out the remaining pie dough disc into a large circle, about 1/4” thick. Using a pizza cutter or a knife, slice the dough into long strips. You will need 10 strips for the lattice crust. (If you can’t get 10 strips, you will need to take the scraps of dough and re-roll and cut them).

Step 11

Place 5 strips on top of the pie. Then, weave the remaining 5 dough strips to make a woven pattern across the crust.

Step 12

Tuck the edges of the pie (including the lattice edges) underneath the bottom of the crust. Then, crimp the edges.

Step 13

Brush the the dough with heavy whipping cream (or egg wash) and sprinkle the top of the dough with raw sugar.

Step 14

Bake for 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375, and continue baking for 45-50 minutes, or until the strawberry filling is bubbling up and the crust is baked.

Step 15

If the pie crust is browning too quickly, use a pie shield or tent a piece of foil over the top.

Step 16

Allow the pie to cool 3-4 hours before slicing. (The filling needs this time to thicken, otherwise it will be runny).
