you are lucky, you live in a part of the United States where you can actually go to a Big Boy restaurant. Many of us aren’t as fortunate to live in an area where you can enjoy a delightfully fresh Big Boy strawberry pie. But you can very easily make one at home.

Strawberry pie filling ingredients

How To Make Big Boy’s Fresh Strawberry Pie

Pie Crust Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Make the crust by combining the flour, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Mix well and press into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Prick all over.
Bake for about 10 to 15 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
Strawberry Pie Filling Instructions
While the crust is baking, mix the water, granulated sugar, salt, cornstarch, and food coloring in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for about 5 minutes, until thickened. Set aside to cool.
When the crust is cool, pile the berries in the crust and pour the thickened glaze over the top. Refrigerate until the glaze is set. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or whipped dessert topping.
