Ingredients
- 1 pre-made pie crust
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 cup fresh kiwi, sliced
- 1/4 cup apricot preserves
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and press it against the sides and bottom. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges with a fork.
- Bake the pie crust according to the package instructions, usually around 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
- In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Spread the whipped cream evenly over the cooled pie crust.
- Arrange the sliced strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and kiwi on top of the whipped cream, creating a colorful pattern.
- In a small saucepan, heat the apricot preserves over low heat until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Using a pastry brush, gently brush the melted apricot preserves over the fruits to create a shiny glaze.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together and the cream to set.
- Slice and serve the Fruit and Cream Pie chilled, and enjoy!
