Valentine's Day Strawberry Heart Pie

 

What better way to celebrate Valentine's Day than with a slice of strawberry pie?!

 

I found this awesome idea on pinterest several months ago and fell in love. I made it even better using homemade pie crust, instead of store bought. It is SO easy, and so worth the extra effort when making a homemade pie. See my recipe below.

 

Look how beautiful this pie is! Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

 

 

To make an easy, flaky, buttery pie crust, you will need:

 

2 1/2 cups flour

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon sugar

2 sticks of butter cut in slices and kept cold

1/2 cup of ice cold water

Dump all ingredients (except water) into a food processor and pulse until it resembles pebbles. Then, slowly add water until a dough is formed.

Split the dough in two (one for bottom, one for top of pie) and roll into pie crust form.

Keep refrigerated or freeze. EASY!
