Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 6-8 tablespoons ice water
  • 3 cups fresh rhubarb, chopped
  • 2 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 large egg (for egg wash)
  • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (optional)

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, mix flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in cold butter with a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Add ice water one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together.
  • Divide the dough in half, shape each half into a disc, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 1 hour.
  • In a large bowl, toss rhubarb, strawberries, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, salt, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Let sit for 10–15 minutes.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out one dough disc and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Trim excess dough from edges.
  • Pour the fruit filling into the crust and dot with small pieces of butter.
  • Roll out the second dough disc and place it over the filling, or cut into strips for a lattice top. Trim and crimp the edges.
  • Brush the top crust with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar, if using.
  • Chill the assembled pie in the fridge or freezer for 15 minutes to help the crust hold its shape during baking.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch drips and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 35–40 minutes until crust is golden and filling is bubbling.
  • Let the pie cool completely for 2–3 hours before slicing to allow the filling to set.
