Strawberry Pie Recipe FAQs
If you are looking for a new recipe to use up those yummy strawberries this is calling your name. If you are scared of pies this is perfect for you. With a handful of ingredients, this pie is pretty much fool proof!
Here are some commonly asked questions along with there answers.
If you have any other questions leave me a comment below and I’ll do my best to answer your questions!
Should this pie be refrigerated?
Any pie that contains eggs or dairy should be refrigerated as soon as they’ve cooled, but this pie doesn’t contain dairy or eggs does it still need to be refrigerated? Yes, because it contains Jell-O pop this needs to be refrigerated.
How do you keep pie crust from getting soggy?
There are several ways to prevent the crust from getting soggy. In this recipe, you’ll “blind bake” the crust and what this means is simply pre-baking the crust.
Puncture the bottom of the crust with a fork in several places. This will keep the crust from bubbling. If the edges of the crust are getting overly dark, cover them with parchment paper or foil until the baking is complete.
Some use “pie weights” or even uncook beans (white beans or pinto beans, really any type of uncooked bean will work) poured into the bottom of the pie crust to keep it from bubbling up, but really pricking it with a fork will do the trick for this pie.

Can you freeze a strawberry pie?
Though this pie will keep well in the fridge up to five days, you can also freeze it! Wrap it well with tinfoil and pop it in the freezer. Well sealed, it will keep up to two months in the freezer. Unless of course your husband or kids find it first! 😋

So here’s what happened. I decided to take my few free minutes to catch up on my bloglovin reader. So I pulled up your feed and… now I have 42 tabs open with all of your recipes and I want to make them all and I can’t decide what to make first. GAH. Anyway– this pie is gorgeous. I can never have enough strawberry things!!!
This is the best comment EVER! And this is what keeps me blogging 🙂 I hope you find some new “keepers”!!
Thanks so much for sharing this luscious…and gorgeous!…pie with us at Weekend Potluck. Can’t wait to see what you bring next time! Have a wonderful week.
When I was a kid one of my family’s favorite pies was strawberry. My mom and dad used to pick it up from Baker’s Square. Your recipe sounds amazing. I will have to bring it to our next family gathering!
Thanks Tonia!
Mom’s cooking always tastes best and strawberry pie is so hard to resist! Thanks for linking up with What’s Cookin’ Wednesday!
Isn’t that the truth? Hopefully someday our kids feel the same way!
Julie strawberry pie was my Grandma’s favorite,she would get my mom to go to this restaurant “Shoney’s and get her one at least once a week. So when I make this I will remember her, miss and love her so much. Thanks for sharing this. 🙂
Awww love this!! I hope you enjoy it 🙂
How long does it usually take for the pie to set?
It should take a few hours!
Use same recipe but substitute fresh sliced peaches and peach jello for another excellent pie. I’ve been making these two pies for over 40 years!
Fabulous idea! I have to try that this summer!
The picture of the pie crust looks so high and deep. Is that just a regular crust?
It’s just a really tall pie tin 🙂
Does the mixture need to be cooled to room temp first befor pouring over the berries?
Nope!
Hi,I’m making this pie right now..I have been craving Strawberry Pie and your recipe sounds great..I’ll let you know??
This is a great recipe!! I have made this 4 times this week. Quick and easy. I used a pre made graham cracker crust. Wonder if this would freeze okay??? Thanks for the recipe!!
I honestly have never tested it like that, but I would think you could! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Isn’t it a 3 oz package of jello or a 0.3 oz package?
*is it 🙂
3 oz package like it states in the direction.
Is that 800 kcal per serving or the entire pie?
No it’s been updated.
I am trying to figure out points for weight watchers. Do you cut 9-inch pie into six pieces? What pie crust did you base nutritional info on? Add Jell-O and dissolve over heat? Pour hot mixture over berries or cool first?
I cut it into 8 pieces. It’s just a generic figure for pie crust out of a database. Please look for the directions in the recipe box and it will answer all your questions! Thanks!
How did you get that pics shell so high? It must have been baked in a different kind of pie plate.
It was made in a different pan! More of a spring form pan if that makes sense!
Looks really easy and yummy.
It is both!
Thank you for the fool proof easy pie recipe. We loved it! Good that it keeps well in fridge and also can be frozen 😀
Love those freezer friendly recipes!
Easy and oh so delicious!
Got that right!
I made this simple strawberry pie. It tastes AMAZING!!!! It was super easy to make.
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for coming back and rating and commenting on it!
