Ingredients
- 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust
- 4 cups sliced strawberries
- 3 cups chopped rhubarb
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, mix together the sliced strawberries, chopped rhubarb, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, ground cinnamon, salt, water, and lemon juice until the fruit is evenly coated.
- Pour the fruit mixture into the unbaked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
- Dot the filling with small pieces of butter.
- Bake the pie at 425°F (220°C) for 15 minutes.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 30 to 45 minutes until the crust is golden and the filling bubbles and thickens.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing to allow the filling to set.
Notes
To prevent the pie from being runny, allow it to cool completely before slicing to let the filling thicken., No need to peel rhubarb; wash well and trim ends., When using frozen strawberries or rhubarb, thaw completely and drain excess liquid to avoid sogginess., Cover crust edges with foil if they brown too fast during baking., Adjust sugar to balance the tartness of rhubarb as needed., Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or cold with whipped cream., Variations include all-strawberry pie, rhubarb-heavy, mixed berry, streusel topping, lattice or full crust, mini pies or galettes, gluten-free or vegan versions, and adult versions with bourbon or fruit liqueur., For frozen fruit use, add extra thickener as needed.
