Rhubarb Custard Pie

Rhubarb and vanilla-scented custard. There are not many spring flavor combinations better than this glorious marriage.

The acidic apple-cherry like flavor of rhubarb explodes with just the right amount of sweetness added to the mix. Combine that with a velvety smooth, mouth-coating custard and eating goes to a whole new level of enjoyment. Now imagine that mixture sitting on top of a crispy, light and flaky dough and…well if you’re like me…that’s enough to buckle the knees.

And now, this entire package is vegan!

Difficulty: simple- to moderate

Yield: makes 2 20-cm (9-inch) pies or one 26-cm (12-inch) pie
