Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Classic Rhubarb Pie.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a sizzling 450°F (220°C).
Step 2
Next, take your unbaked pie crust and gently place it in a 9-inch pie pan, creating a cozy bed for the filling.
Step 3
Scatter the chopped rhubarb evenly across the bottom of the crust, allowing its tartness to shine through.
Step 4
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, white sugar, sour cream, and 1/3 cup of flour until the mixture is silky smooth.
Step 5
Pour this luscious custard over the rhubarb, ensuring every piece is enveloped.
Step 6
In a separate small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup of flour with brown sugar, then blend in the melted butter until the mixture resembles a crumbly topping.
Step 7
Generously sprinkle this delightful crumble over the custard layer, adding a sweet crunch to your pie.
Step 8
Slide the pie into the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, then lower the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for another 40 minutes.
Step 9
Keep an eye on it; the edges should puff up and the topping should turn a beautiful golden brown, while the center may still have a slight jiggle.
Step 10
Once baked to perfection, let the pie cool completely before slicing into it and serving.
Step 11
Enjoy the delightful blend of flavors and textures that make this pie a true treat!.
