Ingredients
- 1 double crust 9 inch pie crust
- 2 1/2 cups of Saskatoon berries
- 2 cups of chopped rhubarb
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch/crushed Tapioca powder
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 3/4 cup white sugar tbsp
- Option #1- add 1 butter in chunks on top
- Option #2- brush an egg over the top of the pie crust
- Option #3- sprinkle white sugar over the egg inch pie crust for a double crust 9 pie
Instructions
- Whisk together the flour, cornstarch and sugar. I used a mixture of flour and cornstarch because I find that sometimes too much of one can overpower the flavor in a pie.
- Lay your bottom crust in the pie plate and sprinkle 2 tbsp of the flour mixture onto the bottom crust to cover it. A common pie practice is sprinkling sugar on the bottom of your pie to help beat soggy pie bottom.
- Rhubarb is extremely juicy and I had no intentions of pre-cooking my pie filling beforehand. To make sure that it didn't seep into the bottom crust, this layer had to use not only sugar but the flour and cornstarch as well
- Toss the remaining flour/su
- gar/cornstarch mixture with the rhubarb and Saskatoon berries, then place in the pie plate.
- Dab the butter over the top of the berry mixture, if desired.Top with your remaining pie crust.
- Brush your pie crust with the egg, then sprinkle the sugar on top if you like.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.
- 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.
