Steps:
- 1. Dice rhubarb into 1" pieces, add sugar and zest and mix. Add to dough lined pie plate, sprinkle w/flour and dot w/butter. Top with second crust and bake 45 min. at 400 degrees.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm rhubarb stalks with minimal blemishes for the best flavor and texture.
- Wash and trim the rhubarb before slicing it into small pieces. Avoid using the leaves, as they contain high levels of oxalic acid, which can be harmful if consumed in large quantities.
- Use a mix of granulated and brown sugar in the filling to balance the sweetness and add a hint of molasses flavor.
- Add a tablespoon of cornstarch or tapioca flour to the filling to help thicken it and prevent it from becoming too runny.
- Use a combination of all-purpose flour and rolled oats in the crumble topping for a crispy, flavorful crust.
- Dot the top of the pie crust with butter before adding the crumble topping to create a golden brown crust.
- Bake the pie at a high temperature initially to set the crust and then reduce the heat to finish baking the filling.
- Let the pie cool completely before slicing and serving to allow the filling to set properly.
