Notes

  • If you find that your pie crust is too dry, try adding a bit more butter to it.
  • Place the pie plate on a baking sheet before baking, as the filling can sometimes bubble over and make a mess in your oven.
  • To prevent the edges of the crust from burning, cover them with aluminum foil or use a pie shield.
  • Let the German rhubarb pie cool completely before serving so that it sets properly.
