4TH OF JULY RECIPES




STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE
I love baking pies!
This one was pretty simple, and I wanted something different for the top of the crust. I remembered an old recipe from Country Living that had cut out stars instead of the lattice top for a fruit pie. Since it was the 4th of July, it went perfectly!
I have not made a rhubarb pie in years, so I was thrilled when the party was over and the pie was gone :)


3 c. cut up rhubarb
1 1/3 c. sugar
1/4 c. flour
1 pt. sliced fresh strawberries
1/3 c. sugar
2 tbsp. butter

Toss rhubarb, sugar, and flour in a bowl. Stir in strawberries.

Place in pie shell. Dot with butter.

Cover with second crust (cut out star shapes)

brush egg wash over crust, sprinkle with sugar

350 degrees for 50 minutes.
