I made a strawberry pie with hearts all over it for a love spell.
What you'll need to make a strawberry pie with hearts all over it for a love spell
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar (sweetness for attracting love)
6–8 tablespoons ice water
4 cups fresh strawberries, sliced (represents love and passion)
1/2 cup sugar (use less if strawberries are very sweet)
1 tablespoon cornstarch (for binding)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (adds sweetness and warmth to relationships)
Zest and juice of 1/2 lemon (purifies and wards off negativity in love)
1 tablespoon rosewater (for invoking love and romance)
A pinch of cinnamon (for passion and attraction)
A pinch of nutmeg (for luck in love)
Mini hearts made from leftover dough (adds an additional loving touch to the crust)
Egg wash (1 egg beaten with a teaspoon of water, for a golden crust)
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. As you do, imagine or state your intentions for love, warmth, and harmony to infuse the ingredients.
Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Add ice water gradually, just until the dough comes together.
Divide the dough into two portions, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
In a bowl, combine sliced strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and juice. Gently stir in 1 tablespoon of rosewater.
In a separate small bowl, blend the cinnamon and nutmeg. Add this mixture to the strawberries, stirring gently to infuse love energy throughout.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C.)
Roll out one dough portion and fit it into a 9-inch pie plate, letting the excess hang over the edges.
Spoon the strawberry filling into the crust, visualizing love and connection with each scoop.
Roll out the second portion of dough. Using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut small heart shapes throughout the dough to create a lattice-like effect. Lay this top crust over the strawberries, sealing the edges with love.
Use extra dough to create a heart border around the pie. Each heart can represent a specific intention, such as commitment, joy, or understanding. As you place each heart, take a moment to focus on its meaning.
Brush the top crust with egg wash to give it a golden, radiant glow. Place the pie in the oven and bake for 45–55 minutes, until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling.
Once the pie has cooled slightly, you can speak a short incantation over it, such as:
"May this pie be sweet as love, warm as passion, and strong as the bonds we share."
Share the pie with your love during a romantic evening or date night. You can even enjoy some yourself, as part of a ritual.
