Ingredients

1 ½ cups (156g) graham cracker crumbs (about 10–11 sheets)

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Pinch of salt

6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, melted

¾ cup (175g) chilled heavy whipping cream

8 ounces full-fat brick-style cream cheese, softened

½ cup (60g) powdered sugar

¾ teaspoon pure vanilla extract

2 pounds fresh strawberries, halved or quartered

2 tablespoons strawberry jam or preserves, heated slightly to thin it out

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Spray a 9½-inch pie plate with cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and salt. Add the melted butter and mix well.
  3. Press the mixture into the bottom and slightly up the sides of the pie plate. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden and fragrant. Allow the crust to cool completely.
  4. In a stand mixer, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside in the refrigerator.
  5. In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
  6. Scoop the filling into the cooled crust and spread it evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 5 hours, or overnight.
  7. In a bowl, mix the halved or quartered strawberries with the warmed strawberry jam until well coated. Once the pie has set, spoon half of the strawberry mixture on top of the pie. Add more strawberries on individual slices when serving.
  8. Serve immediately or refrigerate leftovers for up to 1 day.

Notes

  • This pie is best served fresh, but leftovers can be stored for up to 1 day. The strawberries may release juice as they sit.
  • For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free graham crackers or a gluten-free pie crust.
  • Try using other berries like blueberries or raspberries for a variety in the topping.
  • If you prefer, use dairy-free alternatives for a vegan version.
