No-Bake Fresh Strawberry Pie with Homemade Gelatin Glaze

Strawberry season in Quebec is short but glorious — and when those juicy red berries are at their peak, there’s no better way to enjoy them than in this classic no-bake fresh strawberry pie. The filling is made entirely of uncooked strawberries, tossed in a simple, homemade strawberry glaze that holds it all together in the most delicious way.

This pie has become a summer ritual in our family. I first discovered a version of it at a roadside diner, where I bit into a slice of pie piled high with fresh berries, glistening under a sweet strawberry glaze. No canned filling, no baking the fruit — just fresh-picked flavor at its best. This is my take on that unforgettable pie, perfected over many summers.

Quebec Sugar Pie | A Tradition Worth Keeping

"Quebec Sugar Pie has as many versions as cooks, but tradition demands that the filling be somewhat thin in consistency and, because of its richness, that the depth of the filling be much less than for pies in general." - Laura Secord Canadian Cookbook

This quote perfectly encapsulates how I've experienced sugar pie my entire life. These pies are a staple at every family gathering during the winter, especially during the holidays and Sugaring-Off season (maple syrup making season). For the longest time, I let my aunts handle the sugar pie making, but now it's our turn to carry on these beloved family traditions.

Apple Crisp Tart

So, it isn't an apple crisp. It isn't an apple pie. I love both of those desserts, here is a really awesome variation that brings both together.

What is different about this dessert, is the dough, the dough is butter based and a tad sweet. It is easy to make also, it is a tad different to work with and roll out, sometimes more flour is needed, but not to much or the dough will harden. Anyhow, it is apple season, so not much sugar is used.
