📝 Preparation Steps
1
Add the flour, sugar, salt, and cubed frozen butter to a food processor or blender. Pulse until the mixture starts to come together. Slowly add the cold water and continue blending until a dough forms.
sugar1 tablespoon½ cup sugarfrozen butter (cubed)1 cup
2
Remove it from the processor, shape it into a ball.
3
Wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill in the fridge for 1–⏱️ 2 hours.
4
Divide the dough in half, and place each separately between two sheets of plastic wrap. Roll it out the first half into a circle just large enough to fit your pie pan.
5
Remove the top piece of plastic wrap and transfer one crust into your pie pan, gently pressing it into place.
6
Take the second crust, roll it out the same way, and slice it into long strips for the lattice top. (or if you're not doing a lattice top, this can be used as a second pie crust).
7
To make the filling for your pie crust:
8
In a medium saucepan, add the strawberries and sugar. Heat over medium-low, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries are warm and start releasing liquid. Remove from heat and stir in the cornstarch. Cover with a lid and let it sit for 15–⏱️ 20 minutes, or until the filling thickens.

9
Pour the strawberry filling into the prepared crust. Lay half of the dough strips across the top in one direction, then weave the remaining strips through to form a lattice pattern.
10
Beat the egg yolk with a splash of water. Brush it over the top crust and sprinkle with sugar.

Bake at 375°F for about ⏱️ 50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Let cool before slicing and serving.
