Ingredients:

3 cups strawberries
480g
1/2 cup honey
120g
1/4 cup sugar
50g
1/3 cup corn flour
50g
1 tsp ginger root
5g
1 egg
50g
1 tbsp brown sugar
16g
1 cup butter
220g
1/3 cup vinegar
72g

Instructions:

2. Add Liquids:
- In a small bowl, beat the egg and vinegar together.
- Gradually add the egg-vinegar mixture to the flour-butter mixture, stirring until the dough comes together. If the dough is too dry, add a little cold water, one tablespoon at a time.
3. Form the Dough:
- Divide the dough into two equal portions, shape them into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
6. Roll out the Dough:
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one of the dough discs to fit a 9-inch pie pan. Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough to the pie pan, pressing gently to fit.
7. Add Filling:
- Pour the strawberry filling into the prepared crust.
8. Top Crust:
- Roll out the second dough disc and place it over the strawberry filling. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges to seal. Cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
9. Finish the Crust:
- Brush the top crust with a little beaten egg and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of brown sugar to give it a golden, sugary finish.
11. Cool:
- Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set.

Tips:

- Ensure your butter is very cold before incorporating it into the dough to achieve a flaky crust.

- Taste your strawberries first; if they are very sweet, you might consider reducing the amount of sugar slightly.

- Grate the ginger root finely to ensure it is well distributed and doesn’t create chunks.

- Mix the corn flour thoroughly to prevent lumps in the filling.

- Let the pie cool completely before slicing to allow the filling to set properly.

- Brush the crust with a beaten egg and sprinkle with brown sugar before baking for a beautifully golden and shiny finish.

This strawberry, ginger, and honey pie with a golden spelt crust is a beautiful and flavorful dessert that's sure to impress. The combination of fresh strawberries, spicy ginger, and sweet honey, all encased in a tender and buttery spelt crust, makes this pie a standout. Enjoy a slice on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat.
