This was my mother's recipe and I use it with many fresh fruits including strawberries, peaches, papaya and blueberries.
.
Fresh Fruit Pie
Prepare one quart of fruit as you wish to present it in the pie shell. I slice most fruits. Stir in 1/4 cup sugar and let it sit to draw excess juice from the fruit. Drain and reserve the liquid.
.
Mix and boil until clear and thickened:
1/2 cup sugar
3 1/2 Tbsp cornstarch
(I prefer cornstarch to flour as it makes a clear glaze)
.
Drained fruit juice plus water to equal 7/8 cup
.
Cool slightly and add 3 Tbsp Jello of an appropriate flavor to enhance your fruit.
.
Put a thin layer of glaze in 9" baked pie shell. (This keeps the shell from becoming soggy with juices from the fresh fruit). Spread fruit in pie shell. Pour rest of glaze over fruit and chill..
Serve with topping.
