Deep Dish Rhubarb Pie

Rhubarb has a flavor somewhere between apples and cherries, which is how I became inspired to develop this version of rhubarb pie.

Yes, I do love cherry pie…and yes, I do love apple pie. So, making this rhubarb pie seemed like a natural extension to pies I already love to eat during different seasons.

The pie is relatively simple to make. Once the pastry is made and rolled out, it’s only a matter of popping the filling in the pie shell, topping with a layer of pastry and baking. Simple.

Combine the rhubarb with slices of strawberry for a variation
