Description

Orange liqueur is combined with fresh strawberry purée to make the silky glaze in this summery fresh strawberry pie with orange liqueur glaze recipe.

Ingredients

1 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crust
1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons orange liqueur (such as Grand Marnier®)

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate.
2 Bake in the preheated oven until puffed and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool crust completely on a wire rack.
3 Place 1 cup strawberries in a blender; blend until smooth. Transfer purée to a large saucepan; stir in water, sugar, and cornstarch. Bring to a boil over medium heat until thickened, stirring often. Off heat, stir in orange liqueur; set glaze aside.
4 Decoratively arrange remaining 3 cups strawberries in pie crust; pour glaze over berries. Refrigerate until glaze is set, about 4 hours.
