Description
This Raspberry Rhubarb Slab Pie is a sweet-tart summer dessert made with a buttery crust, juicy raspberries, and tangy rhubarb. It’s the perfect make-ahead treat for picnics, potlucks, or family dinners—easy to slice, share, and fall in love with.
Ingredients
- 2 pie crusts (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 ½ cups rhubarb (chopped)
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
- ¼ cup cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg (beaten (for egg wash))
- Optional: coarse sugar for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line or lightly grease a 10×15″ sheet pan.
- Roll out one pie crust and fit it into the bottom of the pan, leaving slight overhang on edges.
- In a large bowl, gently mix rhubarb, raspberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla.
- Spread the fruit mixture evenly over the crust.
- Roll out the second crust and cut into strips to form a lattice top (or lay it flat with steam vents).
- Seal edges, brush top with egg wash, and sprinkle with coarse sugar if using.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling.
- Let cool completely before slicing.
Notes
You can substitute raspberries with strawberries, blackberries, or a berry mix.
If using frozen fruit, thaw and drain well before mixing.
The pie cuts best once fully cooled and filling is set.
Store at room temperature for 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
Wrap slices tightly to freeze for up to 3 months.
