Low-Fat Sour Cream Rhubarb Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (9 inch) unbaked pastry shells
    3/4 cup sugar
    3 tablespoons cornstarch
    1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
    1 cup fat free sour cream
    1 egg
    4 cups fresh rhubarb, chopped (or frozen, chopped)
    Topping
    1/2 cup quick oats
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    3 tablespoons margarine
    1/3 cup flour
    1/2 teaspoon grated oranges or 1/2 teaspoon lemon peel
Preparation
    In a large bowl, combine sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and nutmeg; beat in sour cream and egg.
    Gently fold in rhubarb.
    Pour into pastry shell.
    For the topping, combine oats, brown sugar, margarine, and flour; cut in the margarine until mixture is crumbly.
    Sprinkle the topping over the filling.
    Bake at 400F for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350F and bake for 35-40 minutes or until topping is golden brown.
    Cool pie on a rack, serve warm** or cool.
    **NOTE slicing this pie fresh out of the oven while still warm will be a little more difficult as the sour cream is still soft; if you want a nice slice that holds together, refrigerate the pie till cool then slice and heat a bit in the microwave if you would like it served warm.
    Refrigerate leftovers.
