Strawberry Rhubarb Deep Dish Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, mix flour and sugar. Add strawberries and chopped rhubarb. Toss with sugar and flour and let stand for 30 minutes.
• Pour filling into pie crust. Dot top with butter, and cover with top crust. Seal edges of top and bottom crust with water.
• Apply yolk to top of pie, using a pastry brush. Sprinkle with sugar. Cut small holes in top to let steam escape.
• Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), for 35 to 40 minutes, or until bubbly and brown. Cool on rack.

Steps:

• Crust Preparation:
• Using 2 pastry blenders, blend the flours, sugar, shortening, butter and salt. Whisk the egg, vinegar and water in a 2-cup measure and pour over the dry ingredients incorporating all the liquid without overworking the dough. Toss the additional flour over the ball of dough and chill if possible. Divide the dough into 2 disks. Roll out 1 piece of dough to make a bottom crust. Place into a pie dish. Put dish in refrigerator to chill.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Filling Preparation:
• Mix the rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, tapioca, flour, zest and juice of lemon, dash of cinnamon, and vanilla. Mix well in a large bowl and pour out into chilled crust. Dot the top of the filling with the butter. Brush edges of pie crust with egg white wash. Roll out the other piece of dough and place over filling. Crimp to seal edges. Brush with egg white wash and garnish with large granule sugar. Collar with foil and bake at 425 degrees F for 15 minutes. Decrease temperature to 375 degrees F and bake for an additional 45 to 50 minutes, or until the filling starts bubbling. Higher altitude will take 450 degrees F and 400 degrees F respectively. Also, you can use a pie bird for extra decor. Let cool before serving.

Steps:

• Hull strawberries, cut each in half. Cut rhubarb into 1/2 inch pieces (or if using frozen, thaw and drain).
• In large bowl, gently toss berries and rhubarb with sugar, flour, tapioca, vanilla extract, and salt.
• Let strawberry-rhubarb mixture stand 30 minutes to soften tapioca, stir occasionally.
• * While waiting, prepare pastry dough (*Pie Crust: my favorite personal recipe is 2 cups flour + 6-7 tablespoons of Crisco butter flavor shortening, mashed together till forms crumbles and a few tablespoons of ice cold water stirred in until it forms a dough, then divided into 2 balls, wrapped in plastic wrap, and chilled until you're ready to roll it into pie crusts).
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Roll out dough, put one crust in deep pie plate, fill pie with berries mixture, Top with bits of butter.
• Roll 2nd crust and cut into 10 strips -- 5 will go one direction, other 5 will cross over first 5 to form a lattice (a picture would be worth 1000 words here). Press/crimp sides of pie. Brush lattice surface with milk.
• Bake in oven for 50 mins.or until it looks golden brown on top. (Keep a baking sheet under pie pan in case of juices flowing over side of pie dish).
• Should let pie stand about an hour to cool down a bit and let juices set, but I have a hard time waiting THAT long.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Combine all ingredients except pastry and place in a 9 x 5 x 2" baking pan.
• Place pie crust on top of mixture, fold overhanging crust under and press double edge against rim of dish.
• Prick crust with the tines of a fork to allow steam to escape.
• Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes; reduce heat to 350F and bake until fruit is tender and crust is a delicate golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Press pie crust pastry into a 1/2-inch deep dish pie plate. Prick bottom and sides of pastry with fork.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.
• Melt chocolate chips in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, 1 to 3 minutes. Paint melted chocolate in the bottom and inside of cooled pie crust. Place chocolate-painted crust in freezer to harden the chocolate, about 30 minutes.
• Place the prettiest strawberry, cut-side down, in the center of the chocolate crust. Arrange as many attractive strawberries as possible around the center strawberry, so they appear as circles around the center.
• Mash the remaining strawberries in a bowl; transfer to a saucepan. Add sugar and lemon juice; bring to a boil, stirring frequently.
• Whisk ginger ale and cornstarch together in a bowl until smooth; gradually stir into boiling strawberry mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove from heat and cool for about 5 minutes.
• Spoon strawberry sauce over strawberries in pie shell. Chill in refrigerator until pie is set, at least 8 hours.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice and cinnamon.
• On lightly floured surface, roll out half of the pastry and line a nine-inch pie plate.
• Spoon in filling.
• Roll out pastry for top crust; using pastry wheel or knife, cut into 1-inch wide strips.
• Brush pastry rim with some of the beaten egg.
• Gently weave strips over the pie to form lattice; trim and flute the edge.
• Brush lattice with beaten egg. Sprinkle top with sugar if using.
• Bake on a baking sheet with sides in a 425 degree Fahrenheit oven for 15 minutes. Tip: If you do not have a cookie sheet handy, make a drip catcher out of foil paper, larger than the bottom of the pie plate, and place it under the pie plate and up the sides loosely.
• Reduce heat to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for 50 to 60 minutes longer or until rhubarb is tender, filling thickened, and the crust is golden.
• Let stand for 15 to 20 minutes before cutting.
