This challenge will be a fun one to do. I've never cooked a pie in a Dutch oven. And I've never cooked rhubarb pie. And I've never cooked a meringue topping. To do all of that in my Dutch oven may really turn out to be a challenge. But that is the recipe that was chosen this week from Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book
And to top it all off I noticed that tomorrow, June 9, is National Strawberry Rhubarb Pie month, so this is the perfect dish to bake! I'm not planning to use strawberries at this point, but I may change this whole recipe up.
Here's the recipe that we are starting from:
| Brown Sugar Rhubarb Pie |
- Pastry for a single crust pie
- 1 to 1 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 4 cups diced rhubarb (about 1 pound)
- 3 eggs
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- Meringue for the Pie
- Partially bake the pie crust in oven in a pie tin--about 5 minutes. Cool.
- Prepare the filling by mixing the brown sugar, flour, and salt.
- Mix the rhubarb with the brown sugar mixture and toss.
- Separate the egg yolks from the whites and beat slightly.
- Stir the yolk and lemon juice into the brown sugar/rhubarb mixture.
- Put the rhubarb mixture into the pie crust.
- Put some foil around the edge of the pie, covering the pie crust.
- Bake for 25 minutes at 375.
- Remove the foil and bake another 25 minutes at 375. It should be nearly set when you are done with this step.
- Spread the meringue over the filling, all the way to the edge, sealing it.
- Bake for 12-25 minutes at 350.
- Cool and serve!
Here's the video where I picked the recipe:
Please join with me and try and cook this or another rhubarb pie outdoors and let me and everyone else know how it was and how you did it!
