Rhubarb Raspberry Pie Recipe 🥧
Introduction:
Not too tart but not too sweet, this beautiful pie is the herald of summertime! Serve with vanilla ice cream to balance the tartness of the rhubarb. I prefer this to strawberry-rhubarb pie because I do not like the texture of cooked strawberries. You can use your favorite pie crust in this recipe.

Instructions:
-
Make Pie Crust:
- Prepare pie crust for a two-crust pie according to your favorite recipe.
- Refrigerate pie dough until ready to use.
-
Prepare Filling:
- Cut enough rhubarb crosswise into 1/2-inch slices to measure 4 cups (reserve one cup).
- In a 3-quart kettle, stir together 3 cups rhubarb, 1 cup sugar, and cinnamon.
- Cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is melted, about 6 minutes.
- In a small bowl, stir together cornstarch and lemon juice.
- Add cornstarch mixture to rhubarb mixture and boil, stirring constantly, until rhubarb is thickened, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer mixture to a bowl and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
- Fold raspberries and the remaining cup of rhubarb into the mixture until just combined.
- Chill rhubarb filling, covered, for at least 30 minutes or until cold.
-
Assemble and Bake:
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- In a small bowl, whisk together egg and milk to make an egg wash.
- Fit an 11-inch round of dough into a 9-inch (1-quart) glass pie plate and trim, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang.
- Spoon rhubarb filling into the shell, smoothing the top, and brush the edge of the crust with egg wash.
- Drape the remaining pastry round over the filling and trim, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang.
- Crimp the edge decoratively.
- With a sharp small knife, score a decorative pattern on the crust and brush the crust evenly with some egg wash.
- Sprinkle the crust with the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar.
- Bake the pie on a baking sheet in the middle of the oven for 45-50 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and cooked through. If the pastry gets too brown too quickly, tent the pie with foil.
- Transfer the pie to a rack and cool for at least 1 hour to set the filling.
-
Serve:
- Serve the pie with vanilla ice cream.
Notes:
- If you use frozen rhubarb or frozen raspberries, ensure they are well-thawed and drained. You may need to use additional thickener to achieve the proper consistency.
Enjoy this delightful Rhubarb Raspberry Pie as a perfect summer dessert! 🌞🥧
