Make the most delicious and easiest dessert with this No-Bake Jello Pie, simple to make gluten-free too!
It’s nearly summer, we are just about officially out of school…although as we all know the past few months school has been much different. Anyone else that needs a break? I’ll raise both my hands.
In the midst of that though one of the best things about summer is all that fresh fruit. Strawberries are in season and they are the perfect addition to this No-Bake Jello Pie. It can also be made with some blueberries too, it’s a great versatile recipe.
We decided though to use strawberries for this No-Bake Jello Pie. My sister actually brings this to most of our family events regularly, it’s a family favorite and easy to make gluten-free too if that’s a need.

How do you make Gluten-Free No-Bake Jello Pie?
To make Gluten-Free No-Bake Jello Pie the only thing you need to do is use a gluten-free graham cracker crust.
There are a few options for this, you can either make your own gluten-free graham cracker crust or you can purchase a store-bought gluten-free crust.
I typically can find the store-bought version at Walmart or our local store; however, if you have gluten-free graham crackers it’s just as easy to make it yourself too.
It’s very simple as that should be the only swap you need to make this gluten-free.
Tips for making No-Bake Jello Pie:
If you use a homemade graham cracker crust, they are usually a little bit bigger than the store-bought version, so you may end up with another serving out of it.
If you do a homemade version, you can also use your own pie dish too.
Be sure to let the pie fully chill before serving. It’s also perfect to top it with some additional whipped topping and strawberries, it makes it look simply beautiful.
This is a wonderful addition to your outdoor summer dinner, it’s an easy dessert that the kids can help make too!
