Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Recipe
Description
The Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Recipe combines chopped fresh strawberries and rhubarb with beaten eggs, sugar, and flour for a thickened fruit filling. The pie is assembled by pouring this mixture into an unbaked pie shell and baking it at a moderate temperature until the center sets, which takes an hour. The eggs help give the filling structure, while flour prevents the mixture from being too runny.
The finished pie balances sweetness and tartness, with a tender crust holding the juicy filling. Letting the pie cool completely on a wire rack is important to firm the filling and prevent a soggy bottom crust.
This pie is a nice seasonal dessert that pairs well with whipped cream or ice cream. It stores well when covered and refrigerated, and it can be frozen for longer preservation after slicing.
Cooling on a rack helps the crust avoid retaining heat underneath, ensuring the pie cools evenly. Wrapping tightly for refrigeration maintains freshness for a few days. Thaw frozen slices before eating for best texture.
Ingredients
- 1 pie shell
- 3 egg beaten
- 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 c. rhubarb chopped
- 2 c. strawberries chopped
- 1 1/2 c. white sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place pie crust in pie plate according to directions.
- Combine the rest of the ingredients. Pour into uncooked pie shell.
- Bake in preheated oven for 60 minutes or until the middle of the pie is set.
Notes
- Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack to help set the filling and prevent the crust bottom from staying warm and soggy.
- Cover tightly with plastic wrap or foil and store refrigerated for 3 to 4 days to maintain freshness.
- For longer storage, slice portions and freeze for up to 3 months; thaw before serving.
