Rhubarb Berry Pie


I love Rhubarb.
I never grew up eating it and as a matter of fact,
I didn't try Rhubarb until I moved to Montana.
But once I did, I fell in love.
About 2 years ago I planted a small bush in my backyard
and years later it is now taking over!
Don't get me wrong, I am happy that it is so huge...
but I now have so much Rhubarb
I don't know what to do with it all.

So I try to use it... in everything.

Like this Rhubarb Berry Pie recipe that I created.
It is so delicious and summery.
Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream
and you will be in heaven.

Rhubarb Berry Pie
 
1 batch of your favorite double crust pie dough recipe  
3 cups rhubarb, ends trimmed, cut crosswise
1 cup blueberries
1 cup raspberries
1 cup cherries
1 cup sugar
2 tbsp cornstarch
Pinch of salt

1. Preheat the oven to 375. Prepare the pie dough and place in your pie dish.

2. In a large bowl, toss rhubarb and berries with sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Pour into pie shell and top with lattice crust.

3. Bake until crust is lightly browned and the filling is bubbling, about 1 1/2 hours. Cool completely before serving.

A summer favourite is strawberry rhubarb crisp (with oats and brown sugar). I'd love to try it with those extra berries.
