Sweet strawberries, tart rhubarb, and a silky custard all wrapped in a flaky pie crust!
🍓 Ingredients
- 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust (homemade or store-bought)
- 1 ½ cups fresh rhubarb, chopped
- 1 ½ cups fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: a sprinkle of cinnamon for a cozy twist
🍓 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat the oven:
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
Place the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edges.
2️⃣ Prepare the filling:
In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, salt, eggs, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
3️⃣ Add the fruit:
Gently fold the chopped strawberries and rhubarb into the custard mixture.
4️⃣ Assemble the pie:
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
(You can add a few extra strawberry slices on top for a pretty look!)
5️⃣ Bake:
Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the custard is set (it may jiggle slightly in the center but will firm up as it cools).
(Tip: If the edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil.)
6️⃣ Cool and serve:
Let the pie cool completely before slicing so the custard sets beautifully.
Serve plain, or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream! 🥰
