Grandma Rampke'S Easy Rhubarb Custard Pie - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1/2 pie crust
1 1/2 cups cut rhubarb, in 1 inch pieces
1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs, beaten (extra large eggs are even better)
1/2 cup sugar (yes, another 1/2 cup)
1 cup whole milk (not skim milk)
cinnamon
Preparation
-
Place 1/2 pie crust into pie plate.
Put the rhubarb in the crust and cover with 1/2 cup sugar.
Add the other 1/2 cup sugar to the milk and beaten eggs, and pour mixture over rhubarb.
Sprinkle top with cinnamon.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes; let cool before serving to allow custard to set.
Note from Julie: this was my dad's favorite pie, and my mom got the recipe from his mother.
Note, again: I've been on the 'net for a very, very long time, and this is one of the earliest recipes that I submitted to any search engines. What I can say: it's a tried and true recipe, one we've been using for well over 50 years. It's what my mom will be serving at Christmas this year... what else can I say?
