Easy And Yummy Rhubarb Custard Pie Recipes

GRANDMA RAMPKE'S EASY RHUBARB CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Place 1/2 pie crust into pie plate.
• Put the rhubarb in the crust and cover with 1/2 cup sugar.
• Add the other 1/2 cup sugar to the milk and beaten eggs, and pour mixture over rhubarb.
• Sprinkle top with cinnamon.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes; let cool before serving to allow custard to set.
• Note from Julie: this was my dad's favorite pie, and my mom got the recipe from his mother.
• Note, again: I've been on the 'net for a very, very long time, and this is one of the earliest recipes that I submitted to any search engines. What I can say: it's a tried and true recipe, one we've been using for well over 50 years. It's what my mom will be serving at Christmas this year... what else can I say?

EASY RHUBARB CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Roll out pie dough to a circle of about 11 inches in diameter. Without stretching the dough, fit into a pie plate, and flute the edges as desired. Place pie dish with crust into the freezer and chill for 15-20 minutes while you preheat your oven to 375F.
• Line the chilled crust with parchment paper or foil, and fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake 20-25 minutes. Remove the foil or parchment with the weights at this point. The bottom of the crust should appear dry at this point. Return crust to the oven until it just begins to turn golden, about 7-10 minutes. Cool completely while you prepare the rhubarb and custard.
• Sprinkle about 1/4 of the sugar over the chopped rhubarb and stir until pieces are coated. Spoon into the baked crust.
• Whisk together the remaining sugar, eggs, flour, salt and vanilla extract.
• Pour custard mixture over the rhubarb in the crust.
• Cover the edges of the crust with foil. Place foil-wrapped pie onto a baking sheet and into the oven. Bake until custard is set (or nearly set - it's ok if the custard wobbles a bit in the middle), about 50-60 minutes. If the rhubarb pieces begin to blacken a bit, it's ok to place a section of foil loosely over them as well. (I did not!).
• Remove pie from oven and let cool at least an hour before serving. Pie is delicious warm or completely cooled. Refrigerate any leftovers.

CLASSIC RHUBARB CUSTARD PIE (WITH CRUST RECIPE)

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and sugar, if using. Whisk to blend thoroughly.
• Add the butter, working it into the flour mixture with your fingers or a pastry blender. Some pea-sized pieces of butter should remain intact.
• Stir in 4 tablespoons of ice water. Add more ice water, about 1 teaspoon at a time, until mixture begins to hold together.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and press until a smooth dough has formed. Do not overwork or the crust will be tough.
• Shape into a flattened disk. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 400 F. On a lightly floured work surface, or between sheets of lightly floured parchment, roll the dough into a circle about 11-inches in diameter.
• Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate. Fold any excess dough over on itself and crimp the edge as desired.
• In a large bowl, toss together the rhubarb, sugar, flour, nutmeg, and salt.
• In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with milk.
• Add the egg mixture to the rhubarb mixture, stirring until blended.
• Transfer the rhubarb mixture into the prepared pie crust. Dot with butter.
• Bake until set in the center, 45 to 55 minutes. If your crust begins to brown too much, cover the edges with foil.
• Remove the pie to a rack to cool completely before slicing.
• Serve the rhubarb-custard pie with a big dollop of freshly whipped cream or ready-made whipped topping, if desired.

GRANDMA'S RHUBARB CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Separate egg yolks and egg whites. Set egg whites aside for meringue.
• Place rhubarb into the prepared pie crust. Mix sugar, evaporated milk, 3 egg yolks, flour, and salt for filling together in a bowl. Pour mixture over rhubarb. Place pie onto a cookie sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes. Turn oven temperature down to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and bake for 30 minutes more. Remove pie from the oven. Lower oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Beat the reserved egg whites for meringue in another bowl until frothy. Slowly add sugar, salt, and cream of tartar. Beat until stiff peaks form. Spread over the baked pie.
• Bake in the preheated oven until light golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.

RHUBARB CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Fit the pie dough into a 9-inch pie plate, fluting the edges, and chill until set, about 15 minutes. Prick the bottom and sides with a fork, and then line the crust with aluminum foil. Fill with pie weights or dried beans and bake until the edges of the crust are just golden, 20 minutes. Remove the foil with the pie weights and continue to bake until the bottom of the crust is dry and lightly browned, another 10 to 15 minutes. Cool completely.
• Toss the rhubarb with 1/4 cup granulated sugar and the orange zest and juice until well combined. Transfer to the crust and spread to form an even layer. Place the pie on a rimmed baking sheet. Whisk the eggs with the cream, flour and remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar until smooth, and then pour over the rhubarb. Bake until the pie is lightly browned, puffed and no longer wet in the center, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack. Before serving, lightly dust with confectioners' sugar.
