The Old Boy's Strawberry Pie

Servings:

This strawberry crumb pie is a summertime tradition in my family, and we have NEVER tasted, (or even seen), a strawberry pie like it! You will LOVE this. "The Old Boy" is my dad, but my mom remembers her grandmother making a pie like this when she was young.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place a drip pan on the lowest oven rack to catch pie juices.
  2. 2 Press pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish. Combine 3/4 cup sugar, 3/4 cup flour, 6 tablespoons butter, and nutmeg in a medium bowl until fluffy; set topping aside.
  3. 3 Add strawberries to a large bowl. Combine remaining 1/2 cup sugar, remaining 1/2 cup flour, and cornstarch together in a separate bowl; add to strawberries, stirring gently until coated, being careful not to crush berries.
  4. 4 Pour strawberries into prepared pie crust, mounding them in the middle as berries will sink as they bake. Cover strawberries with topping; top with about 15 pea-sized pieces of butter. Wrap edges of pie crust with foil to prevent burning.
  5. 5 Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then reduce heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and bake 40 minutes more. With 10 minutes left of baking, sprinkle a little extra sugar over crumb topping, then finish baking.
