Pie Filling
- 4 cups rhubarb, chopped
- 1 ⅓ cups sugar
- 6 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon butter cut into small pieces
Pie Crust
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ⅔ cup shortening
- 5-7 tablespoon cold water
Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine rhubarb, sugar, and flour. Let stand for 15 minutes.
Prepare the pie crust: In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add water, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Divide dough in half. Roll out one half to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Transfer dough to pie dish.
Fill with rhubarb mixture. Dot with butter. Roll out remaining dough to fit top of pie. Place over filling. Trim, seal, and flute edges. Cut slits in top.
Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 40-45 minutes longer or until crust is golden and filling is bubbly.
Cool on a wire rack.
