Instructions
Combine the crushed strawberries, sugar, and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for about 2 minutes.
In a separate bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in a small amount of cold water, then stir it into the hot strawberry mixture. Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously, until it thickens.
Remove the mixture from heat and fold in the fresh, sliced strawberries.
Pour the mixture into your prepared pie crust.
Allow the pie to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until the filling sets completely.
Before serving, top with whipped cream for a light, sweet finish.
