For an extra burst of flavor, macerate the strawberries with a tablespoon of sugar and a squeeze of lemon juice for 30 minutes before adding them to the cooled mixture. If you don't have almond extract, vanilla extract works well as a substitute. Ensure the pie crust is completely cooled before adding the filling to prevent it from becoming soggy.
