Yummy, Yummy PIE!!!!Monday's are always a long day. Getting back into the workweek routine and being so tired from the weekends projects. BUT somewhere deep inside I found the energy to attempt a Strawberry Rhubarb pie. I did cheat a bit, I bought a crust. I know when I am tired making the pastry is risky. So on the way home I stopped by the local grocery store and got some strawberries. One thing I learned growing up, if the "fresh" doesn't look good go for the frozen. So I picked up fresh frozen berry's and hoped for the best. I combined 2 recipes that I had found online and gave it a try. I adapted the recipe and changed the spice from cinnamon to nutmeg. Instead of a top crust I used a crumb crust. It looked good before and after it went in the over. The hardest part was waiting for it too cool, which meant waiting all night until breakfast! It was amazing. The best one I ever made. So I ran out and picked more rhubarb this morning and will be making 2 more to freeze. ![]() This blog entry has been viewed 369 times

Ooooooh, that looks scrumptuous. Can I have a small slice?
I learned along time ago that if I am not in the right mood, making crusts in just a waste of flour and lard.
Oh that looks delicious!! If Toni is having a piece can I try a bit too please? So glad you found a recipe that you could adjust to your own taste and that the pie turned out well for you.
Help yourself! and enjoy!
Grandmama;
Looks great! Hope to get to try some this summer :)
My mouth is watering. Yummy...I don't have any rubarb, but I can always buy some. I never make crust, can you say Pilsbury?
Oh pooh, I always forget to plant rhubarb until it's too late and everyone else is snarfling pies *pout*
Plant some rhubarb now and you will have some in the spring! then it will multiply and multiply!
I am drooling . . . I have never seen rhubarb before. Login or register to leave a comment. |
