Ingredients for Amish Rhubarb Pie

  • Pie Shells
  • 6 cups chopped rhubarb
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • All Purpose Flour
  • Lemon Juice
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Butter

How to Make Amish Rhubarb Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine 6 cups chopped rhubarb, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, ¼ cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. Pour the rhubarb mixture into your unbaked 9-inch pie crust.
  4. Bake for 30 minutes.
  5. While the pie is baking, prepare the crumble topping: In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces.
  6. Use your fingers or a pastry blender to mix the crumble topping ingredients until coarse crumbs form.
  7. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the rhubarb filling.
  8. Continue baking for another 15-20 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  9. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. For extra sweetness, consider adding up to ½ cup more sugar to the filling, depending on your preference and the tartness of your rhubarb.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
