Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Recipe #125515
An excellent pie to make when strawberries and rhubarb are at their peak. This delicious fruit-filled pie is a recipe from Canadian Living magazine, May 1993. You can substitute a plain top crust instead of the lattice top if you like; brush with the egg glaze and cut steam vents.
Tip: Keep a clear plastic quilt ruler with your baking and cooking supplies to measure pastry strips for lattice pies; to measure squares or strips of dough, pastry, or pasta; or as a guide for cutting squares evenly.

SERVES 8 , 1 pie
- 4 cups rhubarb, chopped
- 2 cups strawberries, sliced
- 1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- pastry for a double-crust 9-inch pie

- Spoon in filling.
- Roll out pastry for top crust; using pastry wheel or knife, cut into 1-inch wide strips.
- Brush pastry rim with some of the beaten egg.
- Gently weave strips over the pie to form lattice; trim and flute the edge.
- Brush lattice with beaten egg.
- Bake on a baking sheet with sides in a 425 degree Fahrenheit oven for 15 minutes. Tip: If you don’t have a cookie sheet handy, make a drip catcher out of foil paper, larger than the bottom of the pie plate, and place it under the pie plate and up the sides loosely.
- Reduce heat to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for 50 to 60 minutes longer or until rhubarb is tender, filling thickened, and the crust is golden.
- Let stand for 15 to 20 minutes before cutting.
