Ingredients
  

Pie Crust

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter cold, cubed
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 6-8 tablespoons ice water

Filling

  • 3 cups rhubarb chopped
  • 3 cups strawberries hulled and sliced
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions
 

Prepare the Pie Crust

  • In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until dough comes together. Divide into two disks, wrap, and chill for 1 hour.

Make the Filling

  • In a large bowl, mix rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon until well combined.

Assemble and Bake

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Roll out one dough disk and fit into a 9-inch pie dish.
  • Pour the filling into the crust. Roll out the second dough disk and create a lattice top or cover entirely, sealing the edges.
  • Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F, then reduce to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 45-50 minutes, until the crust is golden and filling is bubbly.
  • Cool for at least 3-4 hours before serving to allow the filling to set.

Notes

  • Use cold ingredients for flakier biscuits.
  • Taste the apple filling and adjust spices as needed.
  • Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat.
