Renee's Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this scrumptious pie:

  • 1 cup chopped rhubarb
  • 1 cup sliced strawberries
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 prepared pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 tablespoon butter (to dot on top)
  • 1 egg (for egg wash, optional)

Instructions

Now that we have everything we need, let’s get started with the preparation:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped rhubarb and sliced strawberries. Add in the sugar, flour, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Stir until the fruit is well coated and set aside to let the flavors meld together for about 15 minutes.
  3. Roll out your pie crust and place it into a 9-inch pie pan. If you’re using a store-bought crust, make sure it’s thawed if frozen.
  4. Pour the strawberry-rhubarb mixture into the pie crust, ensuring even distribution. Dot the top with small pieces of butter.
  5. If desired, you can create a lattice top with additional pie dough or leave it open. If using an egg wash, beat the egg and brush it over the crust for a golden finish.
  6. Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the crust is golden brown.
  7. Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before serving. This will help the filling set up nicely.

Your Strawberry Rhubarb Pie is now ready to be enjoyed! Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or enjoy it cold for a refreshing dessert. Either way, it’s sure to be a hit!
