Strawberries and Cream Pie

While summer technically doesn’t end for a while longer, I think a lot of people consider August the last month of summer and so it’s time to squeeze in as many last summery recipes as possible! I’ve been making this Strawberries and Cream Pie for many years now. It’s really simple to make and is a great way to use up any left over strawberries you may have in your fridge!

Strawberries and Cream Pie

You can use store-bought or homemade pie crust, whatever you prefer! Then add a big old pile of freshly sliced strawberries and a creamy custard-filling. My favorite part? The crumb topping! This strawberry pie is a great alternative to more traditional fruit pies like apple, cherry, or blueberry that you may typically see at parties. That makes this is my go-to pie recipe for spring and summer parties or holidays! And I loveeeeee the creamy and custardy filling that surrounds all the strawberries. I like this pie slightly warmed with a big dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream on top. Long live summer!
