THE OLD BOY'S STRAWBERRY PIE



The Old Boy's Strawberry Pie image

This 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.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch single crust pie
¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons butter
1 pinch ground nutmeg
4 cups fresh strawberries, hulled
½ cup white sugar
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place a drip pan on lowest shelf to catch pie juices.
  • To Make Topping: In a medium bowl, mix until fluffy the 3/4 cup sugar, 3/4 cup flour, butter, and nutmeg.
  • Place cleaned strawberries in a deep bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together the 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup flour, and cornstarch. Gently coat berries with this mixture; be careful not to crush berries.
  • Pour berries into prepared pie crust mounding them in the middle; mounding is necessary as the berries will sink as they bake. Cover berries with crumb topping and top crumbs with about 15 pea-sized blobs of butter. Wrap edges of pie crust with foil to prevent burning.
  • Bake pie in preheated oven for 20 minutes, then reduce heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and bake for an additional 40 minutes. When there are 10 minutes left of baking, sprinkle a little extra sugar over crumb topping and then finish baking.

Found this recipe in an old Frankenmuth heritage cookbook. This pie is quick and easy to make, and does taste like the Stawberry Pies they serve at Big Boy.

GRANDMA'S BIG BOY STRAWBERRY PIE

In searching the recipes already posted, I see they are very similar. However, this uses less filling with the strawberries- which really allows the freshness to shine.
