Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
  • 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
  • 1.5 cups Fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 0.5 cups Granulated sugar (for filling)
  • 0.25 cups Lime juice, freshly squeezed
  • 1 teaspoon Lime zest
  • 1 packet Plain gelatin powder
  • 0.25 cups Cold water
  • 1.25 cups Heavy whipping cream, chilled
  • 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
  • 0.5 cups Fresh strawberries (for garnish)
  • 5 slices Lime slices (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and the melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.

Step 3

Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form a crust. Use the back of a spoon to pack it down firmly.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let it cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 5

In a blender or food processor, puree the 1 1/2 cups of sliced strawberries until smooth.

Step 6

In a medium saucepan, combine the strawberry puree, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, lime juice, and lime zest. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture is warm and the sugar has dissolved (about 3-4 minutes).

Step 7

In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the cold water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.

Step 8

Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm strawberry-lime mixture and stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.

Step 9

In a large mixing bowl, whip the chilled heavy cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form.

Step 10

Gently fold the cooled strawberry-lime mixture into the whipped cream, being careful not to deflate the cream. Mix until fully incorporated.

Step 11

Pour the fluffy strawberry-lime filling into the cooled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 12

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is fully set.

Step 13

Before serving, garnish the pie with fresh strawberries and optional lime slices for an extra pop of color and flavor.

Step 14

Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your Fluffy Strawberry Lime Pie!
