From the Tree to the Table

Surprize Rubarb Pie!

It is a surprize...because my husband has never ate, dreamed about, seen or smelled rubarb pie--so he certainly wasnt expecting me to make one.

First prepare your pie crust..you will need two.

Then mix 1cup of sugar with 6T of flour.

Spread about 1/4c. of the dry mixture in the bottom of the pie crust.

Next pour in 3 cups of frozen or fresh chopped stalks of rubarb.

Then spread the remainder of the dry mixture over the rubarb.

Next chop up 2t of butter into bits and spread it over the pie.

Finally cover with the top pie crust.

Bake at 425 for 15 minutes on the lowest rack.

Then bake at 350 for 45 minutes.

Devour.

In small quanities!!
