Rhubarb Pie image

Because it is so often used in pies, rhubarb is sometimes called "pie plant." For best results, make this pie the day before you plan to serve it.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Pinch of salt
Crumble Topping

Steps:

  • Place the pie dough on a floured piece of parchment paper. Using your knuckles, press edges of dough to help prevent cracking. Roll out dough to a 14-inch round.
  • Use the parchment to lift and wrap dough around rolling pin; carefully unroll over a 9-inch pie plate. Gently fit dough into bottom and sides of plate, being careful not to stretch or tear. Using kitchen shears, trim dough to a 1-inch overhang; fold under, and press gently to seal. Crimp edges if desired. Refrigerate 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. with rack in lowest level. In a large bowl, toss rhubarb with sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Pour into pie shell; sprinkle with Crumble Topping. Place pie on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet.

Rhubarb and Apple Pie with Walnut Crumb Topping image

Provided by Emeril Lagasse

Categories     dessert

Time 2h10m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Basic Sweet Piecrust, recipe follows
2 pounds fresh rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 1-inch thick pieces
2 pounds McIntosh apples (6 to 8 apples), cored, peeled, and each cut into 12 equal slices
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons apple, cherry, or grape brandy
1 cup bleached all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped walnuts
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces and chilled
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch freshly grated nutmeg
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup solid vegetable shortening
6 to 7 tablespoons ice cold water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 370 degrees F.
  • Roll out the dough on a lightly floured work surface into an 11-inch round about 1/8-inch thick. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie pan. Trim off any overhanging dough to make a 1/2-inch wide overhang around the edge of the pan. Flute the edges of the dough with your fingertips.
  • In a large bowl, mix the rhubarb, apples, sugar, 1/2 cup of the brown sugar, the cornstarch, lemon juice, and brandy, and toss to coat the fruit evenly. Pour the mixture into the piecrust.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, walnuts, remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar, butter, cinnamon and nutmeg and mix well with your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle evenly over the filling.
  • Bake until the top is golden brown and the juices are bubbling, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before serving.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Mix well. Add the shortening and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the water and let sit 1 minute. Using either a fork or your hands, carefully press the mixture together to form a soft ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Remove the dough from the refrigerator and place it on a lightly floured surface. Roll out the dough on the floured surface into a circle about 12-inches in diameter and 1/8-inch thick. Gently fold the circle of dough in half and then in half again so that you can lift it without tearing it, and unfold into a 9-inch by 2-inch deep-dish pie pan. Crimp the edges and place in the oven.
  • Bake until golden, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use a combination of sweet and tart apples. This will give your pie a well-balanced flavor.
  • Don't overcook the rhubarb. It should be tender but still hold its shape.
  • Make sure the filling is completely cool before adding the crumb topping. This will prevent the topping from getting soggy.
  • Use a combination of flour, sugar, and butter for the crumb topping. This will give it a crispy texture.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Conclusion:

Apple rhubarb crumb pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its sweet and tart filling and crispy crumb topping, this pie is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy dessert, give apple rhubarb crumb pie a try.
