This Gluten-Free Strawberry Cream Pie has an almond cookie-like crust, light vanilla custard, and sweet fresh strawberries. This pie is anything but humble and yet so easy and simple to make. The strawberries are nestled in the creamy custard and remain uncooked, keeping them fresh, juicy, and sweet.

There is something about vanilla cream custard combined with strawberries. Cream and strawberries are meant to be together. Add the tender crust, and this pie is a winner.

If you have a food processor, you will need only three minutes of prep time – sounds too easy? It is, all the ingredients for the pie crust are placed into a food processor bowl, and you pulse until the desired texture is acquired.

The mixture is easily pressed into the pie dish, which is then placed in a freezer for a few minutes. The pie crust is baked once it has chilled. Now you are ready to fill the strawberry cream pie with vanilla custard layered with fresh strawberries.

Allow time for chilling the dessert

Once the pie is assembled, you must place it in the refrigerator for a minimum of six hours. However, it has the best consistency if you refrigerate it overnight.

To serve top the pie with whipped cream and extra fresh strawberries. I have served the pie without the whipped cream, and it was just as delicious. By adding a whipped cream topping, the gluten-free pie becomes extraordinary.

If it were up to me, I would serve it for breakfast, brunch, dinner and a snack… ha ha. But this pie is always a big hit for special occasions like Mother’s Day brunch, special birthdays or after dinner as a delectable dessert.

Donna, almond milk will work. However, the pie crust holds the pie together.

Can I use almond milk with this recipe and leave out the piecrust?

you are right, but it does remove topical pesticides

washing fruits and veges does NOT remove pesticides. It would be good to refrain from recommendations that are misleading. 98% of the pesticides used today are systemic - meaning they are dispersed WITHIN the plant and cannot be removed.
