Ingredients
- 1 9-inch crust Pie crust (unbaked)
- 3 cups Rhubarb (chopped)
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Butter (melted)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Prepare the pie crust: Roll out the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan, trimming any excess dough around the edges. Set aside.
Step 3
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped rhubarb, granulated sugar, flour, and salt. Toss until the rhubarb is evenly coated. Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes to release some juices.
Step 4
In another mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and melted butter until well-combined.
Step 5
Evenly spread the rhubarb mixture into the prepared pie crust.
Step 6
Pour the custard mixture over the rhubarb, ensuring it fills all the gaps.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.
Step 8
Allow the pie to cool on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the custard to set fully.
Step 9
Slice, serve, and enjoy!
