Ingredients

• 1 pre-made pie crust
• 1 cup strawberries, sliced
• 1 cup blueberries
• 1 cup pineapple chunks
• 2 kiwis, peeled and sliced
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Place the pre-made pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and press it firmly against the sides and bottom of the dish. Trim any excess crust.
3. Using a fork, prick the bottom of the crust to prevent it from puffing up during baking. Bake the crust for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
4. In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Whisk until well combined.
5. Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens and comes to a boil. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
6. In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
7. Gently fold the lemon mixture into the whipped cream until well combined.
8. Next, add the strawberries, blueberries, pineapple, and kiwi to the cream mixture. Stir gently to ensure all the fruits are coated in the creamy lemon mixture.
9. Pour the fruit mixture into the cooled pie crust and spread it evenly.
10. Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
11. Once set, remove the plastic wrap and serve the fresh fruit salad pie chilled. You can garnish it with additional fruit slices or whipped cream, if desired.
