Rhubarb Pie

I've been wanting to make something with rhubarb for some time. In the past, I would never have to buy rhubarb because I'd always get it from someone's garden, but that's harder to come by in Milwaukee. I found some fresh rhubarb at the grocery store and got enough to make a pie and a cheesecake (rhubarb cheesecake recipe coming in the future!).
This pie has a sweet almost custard like filling.

Recipe:
3 eggs
1 1/2 c sugar
1/4 c sour cream (I didn't have sour cream on hand and found that 1 Tbsp soft butter with 2 Tbsp milk works just as well)
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 c flour
2 1/2-3 c fresh chopped rhubarb


Mix eggs and sugar, add sour cream. Mix in flour and nutmeg. Lastly mix in rhubarb.
Pour into a deep dish pie crust (crust recipe in last post).


I made a lattice top.


Bake for 45 minutes at 400 degrees.


Remember to put aluminum foil around edges so they don't burn. I got my foil on a little too late, but it still tasted delicious.



A la mode...
