  • 1 single crust pie crust, partially baked (9-inch)
  • Filling
  • 2 eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 cups sour cream, at room temperature
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
  • salt, a pinch
  • 1 lb fresh strawberries, sliced
  • Streusel Topping
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 350°.
  • Whisk the eggs until frothy.
  • Add the sour cream, flour, sugar, vanilla, orange zest, and salt; whisk until completely blended.
  • Spread the strawberries in the crust in an even layer and pour the filling over them.
  • Combine the flour, brown sugar, and butter in a small bowl and mix thoroughly.
  • Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the filling.
  • Bake for 50-55 minutes, using pie crust shield if the crust is overbrowning, until the top puffs up slightly and the filling is set but springy (the filling won't brown).
