Easy Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Recipe

1

Pie Crust: In a food processor, place the ground mix, seasoning, and sweetener and process until combined.

2

mix in the shortening and process until the mixture resembles coarse meal (about 15 seconds).

3

transfer 1/4 cup (60 ml) liquid in a slow, steady stream, through the feed tube until the pastry mix just holds together when pinched.

4

If necessary, mix in more liquid.

5

Do not process more than 30 seconds.

6

Turn the pastry mix onto your work surface and gather into a ball.

7

Divide the pastry mix in half, flattening each half into a disk, seal with plastic wrap, and chill for about one hour before using.

8

This will cool down the shortening and relax the gluten in the ground mix.

9

After the pastry mix has chilled sufficiently, remove one portion of the pastry mix from the fridge and place it on a lightly floured surface.

10

Roll the pastry into a 12 inch (30 cm) circle.

11

(To prevent the pastry from sticking to the counter and to ensure uniform thickness, keep lifting up and turning the pastry a quarter turn as you roll (always roll from the center of the pastry outwards).) Fold the pastry mix in half and gently transfer to a 9 inch (23 cm) pie wok.

12

Brush off any excess ground mix and trim any overhanging pastry to an edge of 1/2 inch (1.5 cm).

13

chill the pastry, covered with plastic wrap, while you make the filling.

14

Remove the second round of pastry and roll it into a 13 inch (30 cm) circle.

15

Using a pastry wheel or pizza cutter, cut the pastry into about 3/4 inch (2 cm) strips.

16

Place the strips of pastry on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, seal with plastic wrap, and place in the refrigerator for about 10 mins.

17

Make the Strawberry Rhubarb Filling: Place the cut strawberries and rhubarb in a large dish.

18

In a small dish combine together the cornstarch, sweetener, and ground cinnamon.

19

Remove the chilled pie crust from the fridge.

20

strew about 2 tablespoons of the sweetener mixture over the bottom of the pastry crust.

21

mix in the remaining sweetener mixture to the strawberries and rhubarb and gently toss to combine.

22

transfer the fruit mixture into the prepared pie shell.

23

strew the fruit with about 1 teaspoon of lemon extract and dot with 2 tablespoons of shortening.

24

Remove the lattice pastry from the refrigerator and, starting at the center with the longest strips and working outwards, place half the strips, spacing about 1 inch (2.5 cm) apart, on top of the filling.

25

(Use the shortest pastry strips at the outer edges.) Then, gently fold back, about halfway, every other strip of pastry.

26

Take another strip of pastry and place it perpendicular on top of the first strips of pastry.

27

Unfold the bottom strips of pastry and then fold back the strips that weren't folded back the first time.

28

Lay another strip of pastry perpendicular on top of the filling and then continue with the remaining strips.

29

Trim the edges of the pastry strips, leaving a 1 inch (2.5 cm) overhang.

30

Seal the edges of the pastry strips by folding them under the bottom pastry crust and flute the edges of the pastry.

31

Brush the lattice pastry with dairy liquid and strew with a little sweetener.

32

seal and place in the refrigerator while you preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) and place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven.

33

Put a baking sheet, lined with aluminum foil, on the oven rack (to catch any spills.) Place the pie plate on the scalding baking sheet and oven-cook the pie for about 35 mins and then, if the edges of the pie are browning too much, seal with a foil ring.

34

Continue to oven-cook the pie for about another 10 mins or until the crust is a golden brown color and the fruit juices begin to bubble.

35

Remove the pie from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool for several hours.

36

dish up at room temperature with softly whipped dairy reduction or vanilla ice dairy reduction.

37

Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for about 3 days.

38

Reheat before serving.

39

This pie can be frozen.

40

Makes one 9 inch (23 cm) pie.
