Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and place one pie crust in the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced rhubarb, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Toss the mixture until the rhubarb is evenly coated with the sugar and flour.

  3. Pour the rhubarb filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out into an even layer. Dot the top of the filling with diced butter for added richness.

  4. Place the second pie crust on top of the rhubarb filling. Pinch the edges of the two crusts together to seal the pie. You can crimp the edges with a fork or flute them with your fingers for a decorative touch.

  5. Using a sharp knife, make several small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking. This will help prevent the pie from becoming too soggy.

  6. Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips, then transfer it to the preheated oven. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

  7. Once the pie is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
