- 1 all butter double pie crust (for a 9 inch deep pie dish)
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- Raw sugar (optional)
- 450 g rhubarb (approximately 9 – 10 stalks)
- 660 g strawberries (approximately 4.5 – 5 cups)
- 30 mL lemon juice (2 tbsp)
- 250 g sugar (1 ¼ cup)
- 45 g cornstarch (4 ½ packed tablespoons)
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- Prepare the all-butter pie crust and divide into two portions. Chill both portions for at least 1 hour.
- Roll out one portion and line a deep pie dish without stretching the dough. Trim edges and chill.
- Roll out the second portion for the top crust and chill.
- Slice rhubarb and strawberries and place in a bowl. Add lemon juice and sugar, mix gently, and let sit for 1 hour.
- Drain the fruit mixture using a sieve. Reserve the liquid and refrigerate the fruit.
- Reduce the drained liquid in a saucepan over medium heat until about ¾ cup remains. Let cool slightly.
- Mix the fruit with lemon zest, vanilla, and cornstarch. Add the reduced liquid and combine.
- Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C) with a baking tray inside.
- Fill the chilled pie crust with the fruit mixture.
- Top with the second crust (full or lattice), seal edges, and crimp.
- Chill the assembled pie for 30 minutes.
- Brush with egg wash, add vents if needed, and sprinkle with raw sugar if desired.
- Place pie on the preheated tray, reduce oven to 350°F (180°C), and bake for 60–70 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Cool completely before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Do not skip chilling steps to ensure a flaky crust.
- Let the pie cool fully to allow the filling to set properly.
- Serve with whipped cream, ice cream, or yogurt.
- You can use brown sugar for a deeper flavor.
