This Grapefruit Pie is really, so simple to make. You may think that grapefruit is an unusual filling to put inside a pie, however the tartness combined with the tangy citrus flavor from the orange juice and zest come together like a perfect marriage.
A fresh and fruity pie that will be perfect to serve at a Sunday tea with some fresh double whipped cream!
To make Grapefruit Pie, you will need the following ingredients:
In a strainer, drain the diced grapefruit for 4 hours to overnight.
Line a pie dish with pie crust or homemade dough.
In a small saucepan, combine drained grapefruit, ½ cup sugar, orange zest, pinch of salt, ¼ cup orange juice and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Bring to a boil.
Once boiling, add 1 package strawberry gelatin and stir to mix through. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
Pour cooled filling evenly into the pie crust and use a rubber spatula to smooth over the top. Add any remaining gelatin from the saucepan on to the top of the pie.
Refrigerate overnight to chill and set.
Serve the next day and enjoy!
