Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Strawberries
- 3 cups Rhubarb
- 1 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 9-inch crusts Pre-made sugar-free pie crust
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them into quarters. Wash and chop the rhubarb into 1/2-inch pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberries, rhubarb, unsweetened applesauce, cornstarch, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt. Mix thoroughly to coat the fruit evenly.
Place one pre-made 9-inch pie crust into a pie dish. Trim any excess crust hanging over the edges.
Pour the fruit filling into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Cover the pie with the second crust. You can keep it whole, or cut it into strips to create a lattice design. If using a whole crust, cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush it over the top crust for a golden finish.
Place the pie on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 2 hours to set the filling before serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your sugar-free strawberry rhubarb pie.
