📝 Preparation Steps
1
Make the pie crust: Whisk together flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Cut in butter with two forks or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal with several pea-size pieces remaining. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, using a fork to pull dough together into a crumbly pile (add up to an additional 1 tablespoon of water, if needed).
2
Wrap dough in plastic wrap. Use the plastic to flatten and press dough into a disk. Refrigerate until firm, at least ⏱️ 2 hours.
3
Make the pie: Preheat oven to 425°F with the rack in lowest position. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. On a lightly floured surface, roll 2/3's of the dough into an 18-by-13-inch rectangle. Transfer to a jelly-roll pan and trim to a 1-inch overhang. Fold edges under and crimp; chill.
4
Roll remaining dough to 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick. Cut dough with assorted flower-shaped cutters. Transfer flowers to prepared baking sheet, and chill.
5
Stir together sugar, cornstarch, orange zest, and salt in a bowl. Add strawberries and orange juice and toss to combine. Transfer to bottom crust, packing tightly into pan.
6
Whisk together egg white and 2 teaspoons water in a bowl. Brush dough flowers with egg wash. Arrange dough flowers, slightly overlapping, on top of strawberries. Brush edges of dough with egg wash. Freeze ⏱️ 20 minutes.
