Time 1h55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup canola oil
3 tablespoons cold water, or more as needed
1 cup white sugar
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups chopped rhubarb
2 cups blueberries
1 dash lemon juice
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Measure flour and salt into a bowl. Add oil and mix well. Sprinkle water in 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until dough almost cleans the side of the bowl. Gather dough into your hands and press into a ball. Divide dough in half and flatten each piece into a 1/2-inch thick round. Let rest about 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine sugar, flour, and cinnamon in a bowl to make filling. Fold in rhubarb and blueberries, and sprinkle with lemon juice. Stir filling to combine.
Roll dough rounds out to the size of the pie pan and place 1 round into the pan for the bottom crust. Pour filling into crust and dot with butter. Cover with remaining dough round and flute edges together to seal. Use a knife to cut 1 or 2 steam holes in the top crust. Place aluminum foil around the edges of the pie to prevent burning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake until crust is golden brown, about 15 minutes more.

Tips:

To make the cherry pie filling, use fresh or frozen cherries. If using frozen cherries, thaw them before using.
If you don't have a cherry pitter, you can use a knife to remove the pits. Just be careful not to cut yourself.
To make the pie crust, use all-purpose flour, butter, and salt. You can also use a store-bought pie crust.
When rolling out the pie crust, use a lightly floured surface to prevent the dough from sticking.
If the dough is too sticky, add more flour. If the dough is too dry, add more water.
To make the lattice top, cut the dough into strips and weave them together. You can also use a fork to create a decorative design.
Before baking the pie, brush the top with milk or an egg wash. This will help the pie brown.
Bake the pie at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Let the pie cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

These red, white, and blue cherry pies are the perfect way to celebrate Independence Day or any other patriotic holiday. They're easy to make and absolutely delicious. So what are you waiting for? Give them a try today!
