Delicious Sour Cream Rhubarb Pie

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Sour Cream Rhubarb Pie.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C). This is the perfect temperature to get that crust golden and delicious. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 1/4 cups of white sugar, 1 cup of sour cream, 3 eggs, and 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour. Beat them together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Stir in the 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1/4 teaspoon of salt to enhance the flavors. Now, gently fold in the 3 cups of chopped fresh rhubarb, letting those vibrant pieces shine through. Pour this luscious rhubarb mixture into your unbaked 9-inch pie shell, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, allowing the filling to set and the aroma to fill your kitchen. While that’s baking, let’s prepare the topping! In a small bowl, mix together 1/3 cup of sugar, 1/3 cup of flour, and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Cut in 1/4 cup of softened butter using a fork or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. This will create a delightful crunch on top of your pie. Once the 30 minutes are up, carefully remove the pie from the oven and reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C). Sprinkle your crumbly topping evenly over the pie, making sure to cover it well. Return the pie to the oven and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until the filling is set and both the crust and topping are beautifully golden brown. When it’s done, let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy this delightful pie warm or at room temperature, and watch it disappear at your next gathering!
