Description

A delightful blend of sweet strawberries and tangy rhubarb nestled in a flaky crust and topped with a crumbly streusel.


Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup chilled unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4-6 tablespoons chilled water
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 3 cups sliced rhubarb (1/4 to 1/2-inch pieces)
  • 2 ½ cups chopped strawberries
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 3 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice


Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the flour and salt.
  2. Add the chilled butter and use a pastry blender to cut it into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually mix in the chilled water, one tablespoon at a time, using a fork until the dough comes together.
  4. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, and brown sugar.
  6. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender until crumbly. Set aside.
  7. In a large bowl, combine the sliced rhubarb, chopped strawberries, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Mix well and set aside.
  8. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  9. Roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured surface.
  10. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate. Gently press into the pan, trimming excess dough. Flute or crimp the edges if desired.
  11. Spoon the fruit filling into the pie crust evenly.
  12. Sprinkle the streusel topping generously over the filling.
  13. Place the pie on a rimmed baking sheet to catch any drips.
  14. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the topping is golden brown.
  15. If the crust or topping browns too quickly, loosely cover with aluminum foil.
  16. Once done, remove from the oven and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

Best served warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
