Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 0.75 cups unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons cold water
• 2 cups mixed fresh fruit (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, peaches)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and granulated sugar. Cut the butter into small cubes and mix it into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Add the cold water one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough starts to come together. Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

Step 4

Roll the chilled dough out onto a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Gently place the dough into the dish, pressing it into the corners and trimming any excess around the edges. Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbles.

Step 5

Bake the pie crust for 15–20 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.

Step 6

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, toss the fresh fruit with lemon juice. Stir in the cornstarch and cook for 5–7 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and let it cool.

Step 7

In a chilled mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Step 8

Once the crust and fruit filling are both cool, spoon the fruit mixture evenly into the crust.

Step 9

Top the pie with the whipped cream, spreading it evenly or piping it decoratively.

Step 10

Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving. Slice and enjoy your Fluffy Fruity Pie!
