Add in this perfect mix of strawberries and rhubarb!
Cover in delicious, buttery crumb topping.
Now bake!
I snuck a little taste of all that berry yumminess when it first came out of the oven and i think it was quite possible the best thing i had ever tasted!
But the best part was presenting it to my sweet husband as a offering for our 11th Anniversary, which we celebrated yesterday.
Can you tell that it was well liked? I had never made it before, but upon tasting it he promptly moved it to the top 5 list of amazing foods i make...in his opinion.
How about i share the recipe with you? So you can have a slice of the amazing summery pie!!
Thanks Dana for inspiring me, and helping me with a few quick directions!!!

Anniversary Strawberry Rhubarb Pie
pie crust:
2 sticks Butter, room temp
1 pkg. Cream Cheese, room temp
1 t. Vanilla
2 1/3 c Flour
1/3 c Confectioners Sugar
mix all together well in mixer. Separate into 2 balls. Flatten into discs. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes before using. Second disc can be frozen and defrosted at another time for another pie. (this crust can also be used for savory dishes, just omit the conf. sugar.)
Fruit:
3 c Strawberry, sliced
5-6 stalks Rhubarb, sliced
2/3 c. Sugar
3 T. Cornstarch
mix all in bowl to combine. Will become juicy and thicken as it sets.
Topping:
1 stick Butter
1 c. Flour
1/2 c. Brown Sugar
mix flour and sugar with cold butter to make a crumb texture.
Heat your oven to 400. Now that you have all the parts ready. slightly roll out the dough. Does not need to be perfect. this is the rustic plan. place in pie plate and press in the bottom and up sides as evenly as possible. Now pour in the fruit mixture and top with crumb topping. Place the pie on a baking sheet with sides and bake for 50-60 minutes. Until your crust is becoming golden as well as the crumb top. Your fruit filling should be bubbling up.
Eat this and enjoy it as much as we did!!!!! It is excellent warm but just as good cold.

Nice! My favorite pie!
Oh, YUM! Thank you for the recipe too! I agree, every day should be a pie day.
Mmmm! I just came from a blog chatting about strawberry shortcake and now I read this?! I'm gonna HAVE to bake something berrylicious tonight for sure!
Just got a little caught up on your blog- kids are looking great and I do adore Delilah's knees, too! I also love love love curried chicken salad- glad to see our palates match up ;)
Oh, and you should know I was totally trying to feel your supportive sewing vibe as I worked to finish Bear's cummerbund and boutonniere. I owe you a huge thanks since they turned out quite cute!!!!! ;)
Pie is delicious. There are very few pies I don't like.
Wow! Now I'd certainly be up for pie on a daily basis! At our wedding, Gavin and I had pies instead of a wedding cake. Apple, peach, blackberry, pecan...YUM. Happy Anniversary to you! :)
Happy belated anniversary and thanks for the pie crust recipe... I can't wait to try it!

I'll certainly save the recipe and consider making it. I guess it will have to be soon since this is the season for the berries and rhubarb. Off to make the Pumpkin Pound Cake.
