This is a summertime tradition in my family, and we have NEVER tasted, (or even seen), a strawberry pie like it! You will LOVE this. 'The Old Boy' is my dad, but my mom remembers her grandmother making a pie like this when she was young.

👨‍🍳 Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Place a drip pan on lowest shelf to catch pie juices.

To Make Topping: In a medium bowl, mix until fluffy the 3/4 cup sugar, 3/4 cup flour, butter, and nutmeg.

Place cleaned strawberries in a deep bowl.

In a separate bowl, mix together the 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup flour, and cornstarch.

Gently coat berries with this mixture; be careful not to crush berries.

Pour berries into prepared pie crust mounding them in the middle; mounding is necessary as the berries will sink as they bake.

Cover berries with crumb topping and top crumbs with about 15 pea-sized blobs of butter.

Wrap edges of pie crust with foil to prevent burning.

Bake pie in preheated oven for 20 minutes, then reduce heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and bake for an additional 40 minutes.

When there are 10 minutes left of baking, sprinkle a little extra sugar over crumb topping and then finish baking.
