How to Make Humble Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and line a baking sheet with foil.
  2. Prepare your favorite 9-inch pie crust and place it in a pie plate.
  3. Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, gently combine the strawberries, rhubarb, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Let the mixture rest for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to allow the juices to release.
  4. Prepare the topping: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, salt, and chopped almonds.
  5. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Spoon the filling into the prepared pie crust.
  7. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the filling.
  8. Place the pie on the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
  10. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 60-75 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbly and the topping is golden brown and crisp. If the crust begins to brown too quickly, loosely tent it with foil.
  11. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving. This allows the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
  12. Optional: Serve each slice with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra decadent treat!
