Equipment

  • Medium bowl
  • Large bowl
  • whisk
  • oven
  • foil-lined baking sheet

Ingredients
  

Crumb Topping

  • 1.25 cups flour
  • 0.5 cups brown sugar
  • 0.25 teaspoons nutmeg
  • 0.5 cups melted butter 1 stick
  • 0.5 teaspoons apple cider vinegar

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Filling

  • 1 9 inch frozen deep dish pie crust
  • 3 cups sliced rhubarb ½ inch slices
  • 3 cups quartered strawberries
  • 0.33 cups packed light brown sugar
  • 0.33 cups granulated sugar
  • 0.25 cups cornstarch
  • 0.25 teaspoons salt
  • 1 tablespoon orange juice
  • 0.5 teaspoons vanilla

Instructions
 

Crumb Topping

  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Whisk to remove lumps, then add melted butter and apple cider vinegar until it resembles large crumbs.

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Filling

  • Cut the rhubarb into ½ inch slices and place in a large bowl. Quarter the strawberries and add to the bowl.
  • Stir in both sugars, cornstarch, salt, vanilla, and orange juice, then set aside and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Fill the pie crust with the strawberry rhubarb mixture, leaving excess liquid behind.
  • Top with crumb topping, breaking it into large pieces. Bake for 20 minutes at 400 degrees, then reduce to 350 degrees and bake for another 25-30 minutes.
  • If the crumb topping gets too dark, cover the pie lightly with aluminum foil.
  • Allow the pie to cool on a wire rack for at least 3 hours before slicing.

Notes

Apple cider vinegar enhances the richness of the butter without altering the flavor. Using melted butter is a shortcut that saves time but can also be replaced with cold butter if preferred.
