The strawberry filling is creamy and vibrant, the crust golden and buttery, and the topping as fun as it is tasty. It’s the kind of dessert that makes everyone smile—from kids to grandparents.

What Kind of Pie Crust Should I Use?

You can use a store-bought frozen pie crust for convenience or go the homemade route if you want to get fancy. Just make sure it’s a deep-dish pie crust to hold the luscious strawberry filling. Pre-baking the crust ensures it stays flaky and doesn’t get soggy under the weight of the filling.

Ingredients for the Strawberry Pop Tart Pie

  • Pie Crust – The base of your pie, either homemade or store-bought, and should be pre-baked.
  • Strawberry Gelatin Mix – Gives the pie its vivid color and classic Pop Tart flavor.
  • Fresh Strawberries – Diced and folded into the filling for added texture and real-fruit flavor.
  • Sweetened Condensed Milk – Adds creamy sweetness and helps set the filling.
  • Whipped Topping – For that fluffy finish that mimics frosting.
  • Sprinkles – Adds colorful fun and that signature Pop Tart look.

How To Make the Strawberry Pop Tart Pie

Step 1: Prep the Crust

Pre-bake your pie crust according to the package instructions or your own recipe. Let it cool completely.

Step 2: Make the Filling

In a large bowl, mix the strawberry gelatin with boiling water until fully dissolved. Stir in sweetened condensed milk and let it cool slightly before folding in the diced strawberries.

Step 3: Fill and Chill

Pour the strawberry mixture into the cooled pie crust. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until set.

Step 4: Add the Whipped Topping

Once the pie is firm, spread a generous layer of whipped topping over the surface. Swirl it with a spatula to create a playful texture.

Step 5: Sprinkle the Magic

Finish with rainbow sprinkles for that final Pop Tart effect. Serve chilled and enjoy every bite!


How to Store and Serve Strawberry Pop Tart Pie

To keep your pie fresh and creamy, store it in the refrigerator covered with plastic wrap or in an airtight container. It will last for up to 3 days. Avoid freezing, as the texture of the gelatin filling may change. Serve it chilled for the best flavor and texture—no need to bring it to room temperature.
