Strawberry Rhubarb Custard Pie

"This was my Grandmothers recipe, we all love it! You can adjust the sweetness by the amount of strawberries you add. You will need 3 cups of fruit in total, but if you want a more tart pie, use more rhubarb than strawberries. I have posted this with exactly 1/2 and 1/2."

  1. I also skipped out on the crust and added 1/4 cup oatmeal to the topping. My boyfriend said it is one the best desserts I've ever made! He made me promise to make more immediately :)<br/>I used palm sugar instead of sugar, as I have blood sugar sensitivities. Followed the recipe exactly outside of that.
     
  2. This was very tasty, though we did find it somewhat overly sweet. Next time I will cut back on the sugar. I made it more as a crisp/custard dessert rather than pie. I skipped the bottom pie crust and added 1/4 cup of oatmeal to the topping. I also used frozen strawberries, so my filling was a bit runny. Use a bit more flour or some cornstarch if using frozen berries.
     
  3. Wonderful yet simple! Thanks to your grandma! And you to share it!
     
  4. Wow!! I made this exactly as the recipe instructed and it was absolutely delicious! I had never made (or eaten) anything with rhubarb, so I decided to try it. Well, I will definitely be making this again, many times!
     
  5. Excellent pie!!! Delicious!!! We loved it! At first if not completely chilled it was a little loose,but firmed up later and was most yummy!!! I will definitely make this again and again and again!!! I made this for the Farm Women Cooking with Andi of Longmeadow Farm! Woo hoo Andi!! This one is a keeper! Jelly :)

  1. I added more rhubarb and strawberries. 3 cups of fruit wasn't enough to fill my pie dish
