Use our basic pie crust recipe (like provided above) or a pre-made pie crust of your choice. You will need 2 pastry rounds for this recipe.

1. Line a standard 9" glass pie pan that has been greased with vegetable spray with one pastry round. Place into the pan without stretching and form an edge with your fingers by rolling the dough in once over and pinching down rather than pulling the dough over the edge of the pan. This will create a tart-like edge rather than a standard pie crust edge. Prick the bottom and sides all over with a fork. Bake for 15 minutes until the pastry turns a light brown. Remove from oven. Sprinkle the bottom of the baked crust with the 1/4 cup of ground walnuts. While the bottom pastry is baking, you will want to keep your top round chilled in the refrigerator.

2. To make the filling, pour the jar of Strawberry Sorrell Ridge into a bowl. Now beat in the two eggs. Next, with a sifter, sift in the 3 tablespoons of flour a little at a time while stirring so that you do not form any lumps. Your filling is done. Pour the filling into your prepared bottom pastry. This simple recipe also makes a fantastic blueberry pie. All you have to do is replace the Strawberry Sorrell Ridge with the Blueberry. The rest of the recipe remains the same. Now you are ready for your top pastry.

3. Remove your second round of pastry from the refrigerator and cut into 8 to 10 strips. Form a lattice work over the top of the pie by weaving the strips across the top. Cut any excess length off the strips after you weave them just leaving enough length to press the ends against the edge of the bottom pastry. Brush the margarine over the strips of dough. Now bake your pie for about 30 minutes until the lattice work pastry turns a golden brown.

4. Serve your pie either warm or chilled with frozen vanilla yogurt or a topping made of whipped light cream cheese sweetened with additional Sorrell Ridge.
