Ingredients

• 3 cups (diced) Fresh rhubarb
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 3 whole Large eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 9-inch Unbaked pie crust

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Clean and dice the rhubarb into small, even pieces. Measure out 3 cups and set aside.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 4

In another bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. Add the milk and vanilla extract, whisking until fully combined.

Step 5

Gradually incorporate the egg mixture with the dry ingredients, whisking to create a smooth custard base.

Step 6

Sprinkle the diced rhubarb evenly into the unbaked 9-inch pie crust.

Step 7

Pour the custard mixture over the rhubarb, ensuring the fruit is evenly covered.

Step 8

Carefully place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the custard is set and the crust is golden brown. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean when done.

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Serve the pie as is, or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for added decadence. Enjoy!
