How to Make Country Rhubarb Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 4 cups sliced rhubarb, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. Gently toss to coat the rhubarb evenly.
  4. Pour the rhubarb mixture into a 9-inch prepared pie crust.
  5. Sprinkle 1/2 cup chopped pecans over the filling (optional).
  6. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2/3 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces.
  7. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  8. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the rhubarb filling.
  9. Cover the edges of the pie crust with a 2-inch strip of aluminum foil to prevent burning.
  10. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly around the edges.
  11. Remove the aluminum foil during the last 10 minutes of baking for a crispier crust.
  12. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
