BLUEBERRY-RHUBARB SLAB PIE



Blueberry-Rhubarb Slab Pie image

This slab pie is perfect for a party because it's easy to transport, and it serves a crowd. Convenience aside, the true draw of this sheet-pan pie is the flaky, buttery crust and its rhubarb, blueberry and crystallized ginger filling. Cooking the fruit ahead of time results in a filling that is juicy but not soupy - and prevents the crust from absorbing too much liquid. Preparing the pie dough in the food processor is effortless and helps keep the butter cold, which leads to a flakier crust, but be careful not to over-process: Stop when the mixture is moist but still crumbly.

Time 1h45m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/4 cups/290 grams all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup/225 grams cold unsalted butter (2 sticks), cut into pieces
Ice water, as needed
10 ounces/290 grams fresh rhubarb, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 2 1/2 cups)
4 1/2 cups/600 grams fresh blueberries
1/3 cup maple syrup
Pinch of kosher salt
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup/60 grams chopped crystallized ginger
1 large egg, beaten
3 tablespoons sparkling or sanding sugar

Steps:

  • Prepare the pastry: In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, sugar and salt. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture is the texture of coarse sand with some larger pieces of butter. Drizzle in 1/3 cup ice water and pulse the mixture about 5 times or until the mixture is crumbly, but evenly moistened and holds together when you squeeze a bit in your hands. Add up to 3 more tablespoons ice water, but stop before the mixture becomes too wet.
  • Tip the mixture out onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Using the plastic wrap, press the crumbs together. Divide the dough into thirds; tightly wrap one portion in plastic wrap, then combine the other two portions and wrap that larger piece of dough well in plastic wrap. Use a rolling pin to press both dough portions into two flat rectangles. Chill for at least 2 hours. (You can chill dough for up to 3 days in the fridge or freeze it for up to 3 months.)
  • Meanwhile, prepare the filling: In a small saucepan, combine the rhubarb, 3 cups blueberries, the maple syrup and salt. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb has started to break down and the blueberries have started to release some of their juices, about 10 minutes.
  • Transfer a few tablespoons of the liquid from the saucepan to a small bowl. Add the cornstarch and whisk until dissolved. Return the cornstarch mixture to the pan and cook, stirring, until the blueberry mixture has thickened, 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 1/2 cups blueberries and the ginger. Let this mixture cool completely.
  • On a lightly floured piece of parchment, roll the larger portion of dough into an 11-by-13-inch rectangle. Trim the edges into straight lines. Transfer the parchment with the dough to a rimmed baking sheet. Roll the smaller portion of dough out to a 7-by-15-inch rectangle on a floured piece of parchment. Using a fluted pastry wheel or a sharp knife, cut the dough lengthwise into seven 1-inch-thick strips.
  • Spread the filling over the uncut rectangle, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides. Lay the strips of pastry over the filling on the diagonal, spacing the strips about 1/2 inch apart. Trim the strips so that they are even with the edge of the rectangle. Fold the edges up and over the filling and the strips and press the corners to seal. (Press with the tines of a fork, if desired.) Wrap lightly with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 30 minutes (and up to 2 hours).
  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Using the parchment, transfer the chilled pie to another rimmed baking sheet. (You don't want to bake it on the cold sheet.) Brush the beaten egg all over the pastry and sprinkle with sanding sugar.
  • Bake until the pastry is deep golden brown and the filling is bubbling in spots, 50 to 60 minutes. Transfer pan to rack to cool for at least 1 hour before slicing.

BLUEBERRY RHUBARB PIE



Blueberry Rhubarb Pie image

The baker and pie coach Kate McDermott has many tricks to figure out when a pie is done, but her favorite is what she calls "the heartbeat of the pie." She listens for a sizzle that tells her that the fat in the crust is cooking the flour, and for a thumping sound that indicates that the simmering liquid is bumping up against the top crust. Also, watch for bubbling: This will tell you that the temperature is high enough that the thickeners have dissolved into the filling. All-berry pies can be too sweet and soft, so the tart crunch of rhubarb makes an ideal complement, especially in early spring. This glowing purple-magenta filling is quite spectacular.

Categories     pies and tarts, dessert

Time 1h

Yield 1 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 11

Dough for a double-crust pie, chilled (see recipe; be sure to double it)
2 1/2 cups/312 grams rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 1/2- to 1-inch lengths
1 1/2 cups/226 grams blueberries or blackberries
3/4 cup/150 grams granulated sugar, more for sprinkling
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca (also called instant, minute or small pearl tapioca)
1/3 teaspoon salt
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 tablespoon cold unsalted butter
1 egg white, whisked with 1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Roll out both crusts. Line a deep 9-inch pie pan with the bottom crust and return both crusts to the refrigerator.
  • In a medium bowl, combine rhubarb, berries, sugar, flour, tapioca, salt, nutmeg and lemon juice. Toss to coat and combine, then scoop into waiting bottom crust. The fruit should come up to within 1/2-inch of the rim of the pan; do not overfill. If necessary, add more or subtract some of the fruit. Break the butter into pieces and dot over the fruit.
  • Lay top crust over filling. Trim excess dough from the edges and crimp, then cut 6 or 7 vents on top. Brush a light coating of egg wash over the crust, including the edges.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 degrees. Bake another 25 minutes, then open the oven and quickly sprinkle the crust with a thin coating of granulated sugar. Bake another 10 to 15 minutes, or until you see steady bubbling in the filling coming through the vents.
  • Remove pie from oven and listen to it: if the crust is sizzling, and the filling is audibly bubbling against the top crust, it is done. Let cool completely before serving.

PEACH-BERRY RHUBARB SLAB PIE



Peach-Berry Rhubarb Slab Pie image

I created this recipe one winter in order to satisfy a healthy craving for multiple different pie flavors. Tart peaches, berries, and rhubarb meet in a deliciously sweet sauce, then are sandwhiched in between a flaky cinnamon & sugar pie crust and a crumbly streusel topping. This recipe has received rave reviews from pie lovers of all kinds.

Provided by Sweets n Supper

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 9x13 inch pie, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 27

8 peaches (small or medium)
1/2 cup raspberries
1/2 cup blackberry
3/4 cup strawberry (quartered)
1 cup rhubarb (cut into 1/4 - 1/2 inch pieces)
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons corn syrup
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh squeezed orange juice
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
all-purpose flour
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
butter
1 cup butter
1/3 cup shortening
8 -10 tablespoons cold water
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 cup butter (softened)
2 tablespoons cold water

Steps:

  • Prepare the crust. In a medium bowl, stir together flour and salt until well combined. Add 1/3 cup butter and the shortening, then cut in with a pastry blender until flour appears crumbly and no crumbs are larger than pea size. Gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time, tossing thoroughly with fork after each addition until dough sticks together. Dough should be only slightly moist and should still retain a crumbly appearance until pressed together between fingers. Place mixture into an ungreased 9 x 13 inch glass baking dish and flatten to bottom, pressing dough halfway up the sides of the baking dish. Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter and brush over crust using a pastry brush. Immediately sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar and set aside.
  • Make the filling. Peel and slice two of the peaches and place into a medium bowl. Add strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, and rhubarb. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon flour and 2 tablespoons sugar, then pour over fruit and toss until fruit is evenly coated. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium sauce pan, add remaining peaches (peeled and sliced), cinnamon, butter, corn syrup, honey, lemon jice, orange juice, and sugar. Begin cooking over medium heat, stirring constantly until juices form. Mix corn starch with 1 teaspoon of water and gradually pour into mixture while stirring constantly. Allow mixture to come to a boil. Continue to boil, stirring occasionally, until mixture thickens. Once thickened, stir constantly until the liquid portion of the filling sticks to the spoon when removed from the pan. It should almost have the appearance of cooled pie filling. Remove from heat and add remaining fruit, stirring juices into flour mixture before adding to the filling. Lightly stir to combine and set aside.
  • Place empty pie crust in the oven on the middle rack and bake until the butter is melted and the cinnamon and sugar appear to have absorbed into the crust.
  • In the meantime, prepare the streusel. In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients and stir together until crumbly and all dry ingredients appear a bit moist. Set aside.
  • Remove crust from the oven and top evenly with pie filling. Cover with the streusel, paying special attention to the sides as the filling tends to bubble up over the topping along the edges. Bake on center rack for approximately 45 minutes, or until crust appears golden and streusel is crunchy. Remove from oven and cool, then slice into 12 pieces.

BLUEBERRY SLAB PIE



Blueberry Slab Pie image

Perfect for parties, this large-format pie will wow guests with its incomparable flavor. Juicy, perfectly spiced berries pair beautifully with the flaky, buttery crust.

Provided by Four and Twenty Blackbirds

Categories     dessert

Time 11h

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 pound cold unsalted butter (4 sticks), preferably 82% fat European butter
5 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
2 cups cold water
2 cups ice cubes
unsalted butter, softened, for greasing baking sheets
Egg wash, 1 large egg, whisked with 1 teaspoon water
Raw sugar for finishing, such as Demerara
1 large baking apple, peeled and shredded, such as Empire
Juice of 1 lemon
2/3 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup sugar
5 dashes Angostura bitters
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1 pinch ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cardamom
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
7 tablespoons ground arrowroot, may substitute potato starch or tapioca starch
6 pints fresh blueberries, washed and picked over for stems

Steps:

  • In a large, flat-bottomed bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Add the butter cubes and toss to coat with the flour mixture. Use a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour; do not smash or smear the butter. Scrape butter off the pastry blender during the mixing process and continue mixing. (If butter is softening too fast, put the bowl in the refrigerator until butter firms up, 2-5 minutes.) Continue cutting, working quickly, until butter is broken down and looks like a coarse crumble with only a few larger pieces.
  • Combine vinegar with water and ice; you'll use up to 1½ cups of this liquid in the pie dough, a tablespoon at a time. Begin by sprinkling about 8 tablespoons of liquid over the flour mixture; use a bench scraper or your hands to incorporate until the mixture begins to come together. Sprinkle in 8 more tablespoons of liquid and continue the mixing process. Squeeze a fistful of dough: if it holds, like wet sand, it's ready. If it falls apart, add 1-2 more tablespoons of liquid at a time, squeezing the dough to check if it holds. Bring all the dough together, sprinkling dry bits with more small drops of liquid as necessary; dough will look shaggy. Knead in the bowl just until incorporated.
  • Turn dough onto a work surface and use a bench scraper to divide dough into two equal pieces. Shape into flat disks and wrap in plastic; refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably overnight. Dough can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and frozen up to 1 month, tightly wrapped.
  • Generously butter a baking sheet and line with parchment paper. Dust a large work surface and tapered French rolling pin with flour. Roll out 1 disc of chilled pie dough into a rectangle by rolling it in an "X," diagonally, for even stretching. (If dough is softening too fast at any point in the rolling process, chill in the refrigerator until firm, 2-5 minutes.) Once the dough has been thinned out, switch to a straight French rolling pin and continue rolling the dough until it's a rectangle of even thickness, 3-4 inches larger than the baking sheet. Fit the dough into the baking sheet by gently folding in half, then in half again. Align the creases squarely in the middle of the pan, then unfold the dough so it's centered in the pan. There should be a 1-inch dough overhang on all sides. (If necessary, it's okay to stretch the dough gently.) Repeat the rolling and shaping process with top crust dough to a 17" x 13" rectangle. Invert a rimmed baking sheet and spread the dough on top. Refrigerate both sheets while assembling the filling, 20 minutes.
  • Filling: Taste your blueberries first. They can vary from really sweet to really tart which will affect how much sugar is added; add or take out up to ¼ cup sugar to adjust sweetness. In a small bowl, mix shredded apple with lemon juice. In a large bowl, combine both sugars, Angostura bitters, allspice, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, salt, and ground arrowroot. Add the blueberries, crushing about half of them with your hands; mix well to combine, making sure no spices remain at the bottom of the bowl.
  • Preheat oven to 425 F. Remove the chilled dough sheets; set the top dough aside. Transfer the filling into the dough-lined baking sheet, patting it down to make sure there are no gaps. Use the round pastry cutter to punch random holes into the top dough, 2-3 inches apart, to create a polka dot effect; don't get too close to the edges. (Save the pastry circles to make crust cookies!) Place the top dough sheet squarely over the filling, then seal the top and bottom crusts by tucking and pinching excess dough under the bottom crust. Seal again by pressing circumference of crust with your thumbs.
  • Brush egg wash evenly over the top crust, and sprinkle with raw sugar. Pie will bake for a total of 1 hour. Bake on the lowest rack of the oven until crust is set and beginning to brown, 20-25 minutes. Lower heat to 375 F, move the pie to the center oven rack, and continue to bake until crust is a deep golden brown and juices are bubbling throughout, about 30-35 minutes longer. Allow pie to cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into it, 1-2 hours. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.

  • To make sure the bottom crust doesn't get soggy, pre-bake it for 10 minutes before adding the filling.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust, or it will be difficult to seal and the filling may bubble over.
  • If you don't have a pastry brush, you can use a spoon to spread the egg wash over the crust.
  • To prevent the pie from browning too much, cover it with foil for the first 30 minutes of baking.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 1 hour before serving, or the filling may be too runny.
