Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh rhubarb, chopped
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 3 eggs, large
- 1.5 cups milk
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 0.25 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 0.25 cup all-purpose flour (for streusel)
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish.
Spread the chopped rhubarb evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie dish.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and whisk until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter evenly over the rhubarb in the pie dish.
In a small bowl, combine the light brown sugar, all-purpose flour (for streusel), and ground cinnamon. Add the cold cubed butter and use a fork or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter in the pie dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the pie is set in the center and the top is golden brown.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
Slice and enjoy your Impossible Rhubarb Streusel Pie with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
