This Strawberry Rhubarb Pie is all the rage with the flavor of fresh sweetened strawberries and rhubarb tucked in a homemade crust and topped with a simple four-ingredient streusel crumb topping. Strawberries and rhubarb are a match made in heaven and one of my family’s favorites. Enjoy it straight up or a la mode!
THE BEST STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE
Unlike most strawberry rhubarb pies, this recipe uses a streusel crumb topping instead of a flaky pastry or lattice top crust. This gives this tasty pie a little more sweetness to balance out the tart rhubarb and a little added texture.
We love fresh fruit desserts like pies, cobblers, crumbles, and crisps. Have you tried any of my other fresh fruit desserts? Cherry Crisp, Blackberry Cobbler, Peach Crisp, and Blueberry Cobbler are just a few of our favorites. Just the thought of them makes my mouth water.
RHUBARB MAKES THE PIE
Rhubarb is a stalky plant that grows in cooler climates. The stalks are edible, but the leaves are not. They contain a compound called oxalic acid, which is toxic to humans and animals. Therefore, they should be removed and discarded.
Rhubarb is pretty tart by itself. However, it is delicious, sliced and mixed with other fruit, sweetened, and used in pies, cobblers, crisps, and crumbles. To prep, remove any leaves and discard them, wash, and slice like you would celery.
