Blueberry Rhubarb Pie
Description
Blueberry Rhubarb Pie brings together 2 cups each of chopped rhubarb and blueberries mixed with flour and sugar to balance the tartness. This mixture is placed in a prepared double crust pie shell with butter dotted on top to enrich the filling as it bakes. The pie is sealed with the top crust, which is brushed with egg and sprinkled with sugar to create a golden crust with a subtle crunch.
The pie bakes starting at a higher temperature of 425°F for 15 minutes to set the crust, then reduces to 350°F for 50-55 minutes longer to cook the filling thoroughly. Edges of the crust may brown too quickly, so they are protected with foil or a pie crust shield. A sign that baking is complete is the bubbling of the filling and an evenly browned crust all over.
This pie offers a balance of sweet and tart flavors and can be served as a dessert alongside cream or ice cream. The combination of juicy blueberries and crisp rhubarb gives a pleasing textural contrast with a flaky pastry crust.
Ingredients
- 2 cups rhubarb chopped
- 2 cups blueberries
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 tablespoons flour
- pie dough for 9 inch pie, double crust
Instructions
- Gently toss together your rhubarb, blueberries, flour, and sugar.
- Place your bottom crust into the pie plate. Pour your berries into the pie plate. Add butter on top in little dabs.
- Cover with your crust. Brush your pie crust with the egg then sprinkle the sugar on top. Pinch the seams together and mark your pie vents as you like.
- Using the lowest rack of your oven, bake for 15 minutes at 425 degrees, then lower the temperature to 350 degrees and bake for about 50-55 minutes more.
- When your pie edges start to become too brown and they always will- cover the edges with tinfoil or use a pie crust cover. I have one and they are amazing!
- Continue baking until you see the pie filling bubbling and your pie is beautifully browned all over the top. Remove from the oven and cool on a baking rack.
