I had extra dough, so I made decorations for
the top.
This is how it looked before I baked it.

Unfortunately, when I put it out to cool,
my youngest brother pulled it off the counter
and it fell on the floor.
Rhuberry Pie
Ingredients:
Pie crust (recipe follows)
1 1/3 cups sugar
1/3 cup flour (I used rice flour)
2 cups sliced rhubarb
2 cups sliced strawberries
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees and place
the pie crust in the pie plate.
2. Mix sugar and flour.
3. Place 1/2 of the fruit in the pie crust and sprinkle
with some of the sugar mixture. Do the same with
the rest of the fruit and sugar.
4. Cover with pie crust with slits in it.
5. Bake for 40-50 minutes. Set out to cool (out of the reach
of younger siblings.)
6. Serve warm or cold with ice cream or whipped cream.
Pie Crust
Ingredients:
2/3 cup COLD butter
2 cups rice flour
1 tsp xanthan gum
1 tsp salt
4+ tbs COLD water
1. Cut the butter in the flour and salt.
2. Add the water 1 tbs at a time until the dough forms a ball.
(Don't worry if you use a lot of water, I used 10 tbs in one of
mine.)
3. Let chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
4. Take dough out of refrigerator and let rest for about 5 minutes.
5. Divide dough in two. Roll out each ball on a floured (rice) surface into a circle, about 10 inches. (Don't try to squish it or it will crumble and fall apart. Then you will have to press it into the pie plate.)
