Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
- 2 cups rhubarb stalks, chopped
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
- Prepare the filling by combining strawberries, rhubarb, sugar, flour, and lemon juice in a bowl. Let it sit while you prepare the crust.
- For the pie crust, mix flour and cold butter until crumbly. Gradually add ice water until dough forms.
- Roll out half the dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie pan. Place it in the pan and fill with the fruit mixture.
- Roll out the second half of the dough and cover the filling. Trim excess dough and crimp edges.
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut slits in the top crust for steam to escape. Bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown.
