How to Make Blueberry Rhubarb Almond Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) with the oven rack in the lowest position.
  2. Line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the bottom pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie plate.
  4. Shape 4 ounces of almond paste into a flat disk.
  5. Roll the almond paste disk between two sheets of waxed paper to a 9-inch circle.
  6. Gently press the almond paste into the bottom and up the sides of the pie shell.
  7. In a large bowl, whisk together ¾ cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 1 tablespoon tapioca starch, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  8. Add 4 cups chopped rhubarb and 3 cups fresh blueberries to the bowl.
  9. Toss gently to combine and pour the filling into the prepared pie shell.
  10. Dot the filling with 2 tablespoons of cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces.
  11. Place the top crust over the filling and crimp the edges to seal.
  12. Brush the top crust with 1 tablespoon of milk and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar.
  13. Cut 3-4 slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape. Place the pie on the prepared baking sheet.
  14. Bake for 25 minutes at 400°F (200°C). Then, reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the juices are bubbling.
  15. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
