Rhubarb Custard Pie

Rhubarb Custard Pie

Rhubarb Custard Pie is my absolute favorite pie - the tart rhubarb mixed with lots of sugar and a creamy custard is just decadent! It is also a very special dessert recipe because my Dad made it every year for my birthday.

Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pie crust
  • 1 lb rhubarb diced
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs large
  • 1/2 stick butter unsalted, melted
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400
    Frozen Crust: Thaw pie 10 min at room temperature. Prick bottom and sides with fork. Add pie weights (or uncooked beans) and bake for 12-15 minutes. Remove weights and bake 10 min more. 
    Refrigerated Crust: Place pie dough in a 9-inch pie plate and crimp edges. Prick bottom and sides with fork. Add pie weights (or uncooked beans) and bake for 12-15 minutes.
    1 pie crust
  • Let crust cool before filling.
  • In a bowl, toss rhubarb with 1/4 cup sugar and stir. 
    1 lb rhubarb, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • In a separate large bowl, whisk together flour, remaining sugar, eggs, butter and heavy cream until smooth & combined. Pour custard mixture into cooled pie crust.
    1/3 cup flour, 2 eggs, 1/2 stick butter, 1/4 cup heavy cream, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • Scatter rhubarb across entire pie. Feel free to push it down into the custard a little. Sprinkle a few additional tablespoons of sugar over the top of the pie.
  • Bake at 400 for 50 minutes. Pie will be slightly puffed, golden brown and a little wobbly in the center. Be sure to cover crust edges with aluminum foil if it starts to brown too much.
  • Transfer to a wire rack and cool for 1 hour. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
