Indulge in the refreshing flavors of Logan's Fruity Fresh Pie. This delightful pie combines a buttery graham cracker crust with a creamy and tangy filling made with fresh fruits. Perfect for warm summer days or any time you crave a light and fruity dessert.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • ½ cup fresh blueberries
  • ½ cup fresh raspberries
  • ½ cup fresh blackberries
  • ¼ cup apricot jam
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix well until the crumbs are evenly coated.
  3. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Use the back of a spoon to press the crumbs firmly. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then remove and set aside to cool.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  5. In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  6. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
  7. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled graham cracker crust.
  8. In a small saucepan, heat the apricot jam and lemon juice over low heat until melted and well combined. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  9. In a separate bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries.
  10. Pour the slightly cooled apricot jam mixture over the mixed berries and toss gently to coat.
  11. Arrange the fruit mixture over the cream cheese layer in the pie dish.
  12. Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours, or until set.
  13. Serve chilled and enjoy!
