  • 1 cup Brown Sugar can substitute with white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon adjust to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg optional

  • 2 cups Flour can use gluten-free flour

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Chop the rhubarb into small pieces and combine it with brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat for about 15-20 minutes until the rhubarb softens.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Create a well in the center for the butter and cut it in using a pastry cutter until it resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water and stir until dough forms. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out half the dough on a lightly floured surface to fit your pie dish. Place the rolled dough into the dish and add the filling.
  4. Roll out the remaining dough to cover the filling or create a lattice pattern. Brush the top with a beaten egg.
  5. Bake for about 40 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the filling bubbles up. Cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before serving.
