Why make this pie

The sweetness of raspberries along with the tartness of rhubarb is a perfect match. Strawberries and rhubarb are a more well known pairing, but raspberries and rhubarb is a combination you don't want to miss.

This pie is a summertime favorite.

Key ingredients

  • Fresh rhubarb
  • Fresh raspberries
  • An orange - for zest and juice
  • Unbaked pie crust - make your own or buy a premade crust

To make the filling

  • Add chopped rhubarb to a bowl and cover with sugar.
  • Let rhubarb sit for 15-30 minutes until sugar has dissolved and juice has formed

How to make a lattice crust

I added a lattice crust to this pie, but you could also add a solid crust too. Just be certain to cut a few slits in the center of the top crust to allow steam to escape while baking.

  • Roll out pie dough and cut into evenly sized strips
  • Place one strip across the center of the pie
  • Add another strip creating a "t" in the center of the pie
  • Continue adding one strip at a time alternating direction
  • To create the lattice (over under pattern) gently lift every other strip and then lay the strips back down

Tips for making

  • Don't omit the orange! It's a small amount but it really adds a nice balance to the flavors.
  • If adding a solid top crust, slice a few vents in the top to allow the steam to escape while baking.
  • Bake pie on a baking sheet to catch any overflow juices.
  • Allow pie to cool before eating.

    That is one gorgeous pie, Kathy! And I love the idea of mixing it up and using raspberries instead of strawberries. I'll have to try this one...we actually just realized there are a ton of wild raspberry bushes right near our house! 🙂

    As you said, it's common (or more so) to see rhubarb with strawberries, but I love this introduction to having it with raspberries. And I'm wondering why this isn't done more often. Such a tasty combination! And so pretty. 🙂 ~Valentina
