Strawberry Raspberry Pie is a delicious and easy summer pie that will be the talk of the neighborhood potluck. It is a made from a basic recipe that includes prepared pie crust, a simple gelatin filling. fresh fruit and Chambord Raspberry Liqueur. This recipe has minimal steps and won’t have you spending needless time in the kitchen.
Pies made with fresh fruits and berries are light and refreshing during the summer months. The addition of the raspberry liqueur adds a delicious raspberry flavor with a velvety rich texture to the gelatin filling.
First bake the pie crust according to package directions and cool completely. Slice fresh strawberries and add to the cooled crust. We have made this recipe several times. Most of the time we only add strawberries, but to make the pie look more patriotic, we added in some blue berries this time. Cook the gelatin base in a small saucepan and add to the berries and crust. Refrigerate for 2–3 hours. Top with whipped cream or cool whip, and enjoy!
