Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

This delightful Strawberry Rhubarb Pie combines the sweet tanginess of strawberries with the tart crunch of rhubarb, all encased in a flaky dairy-free crust. Perfect for a warm dessert, it's a classic American treat that’s easy to make and share.

Ingredients

• all-purpose flour - 1 1/4 cups
• coconut oil - 1/3 cup, melted
• cold water - 3-4 tablespoons
• sugar - 1/2 cup
• cornstarch - 2 tablespoons
• fresh rhubarb, diced - 1 cup
• fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced - 1 cup
• vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
• salt - 1/4 teaspoon
• lemon juice - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the melted coconut oil and mix until crumbly.
3. Add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Shape into a ball, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
4. In another bowl, combine diced rhubarb, sliced strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and set aside.
5. Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Place the rolled dough in the dish, trimming any excess.
6. Pour the fruit mixture into the crust, spreading it evenly.
7. Roll out the remaining dough for the top crust, or create a lattice design. Seal the edges and cut slits for steam to escape.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling.
9. Let the pie cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
