Ingredients
Method
Prepare the crust
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove and let cool.
Make the filling
- In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
- In another bowl, toss the sliced strawberries with lemon juice. Gently fold the strawberries into the whipped cream mixture until just combined.
Assemble the pie
- Spoon the strawberry cream filling into the cooled crust, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Slice and serve chilled, garnished with additional strawberries if desired.

Notes
For best results, use fresh strawberries and serve the pie the same day it's made.
