Ingredients

• 3 cups Fresh strawberries
• 3 cups Fresh rhubarb, diced
• 1.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups Cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
• 2 9-inch rounds Pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 Egg
• 1 tablespoon Milk
• 1 tablespoon Coarse sugar (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberries, rhubarb, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir well to coat the fruit evenly.

Step 3

Roll out one pie crust and place it into a 9-inch pie pan, pressing it firmly into the bottom and sides.

Step 4

Spoon the strawberry-rhubarb filling into the prepared crust and dot the top with small cubes of butter.

Step 5

Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. You can leave it whole for a classic top or cut it into strips for a lattice design. Trim any excess crust and crimp the edges together to seal.

Step 6

If using a whole top crust, cut a few slits in the center to allow steam to escape during baking.

Step 7

In a small bowl, beat the egg with the milk to create an egg wash. Brush it lightly over the top of the pie crust.

Step 8

If desired, sprinkle coarse sugar over the top for added texture and sweetness.

Step 9

Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

Step 10

Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Step 11

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving. This allows the filling to set.

Step 12

Slice and serve with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired!
