This rhubarb pie is made with bananas and rhubarb.

Ingredients:

  • Pastry for 2-crust pie
  • 3 cups sliced fresh rhubarb, about 1 pound
  • 3 medium ripe bananas, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon butter, cut in small pieces

Preparation:

Prepare pastry for pie crust.
Roll out half of the pastry to a 12-inch circle and line a 9-inch pie plate. In a large bowl, combine rhubarb, bananas, sugar, orange juice, flour, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Spoon mixture into the pastry-lined pie plate and dot with butter. Roll remaining pastry into an 11-inch circle for top crust. Place over the fruit filling, seal, and flute all around. Bake pie at 450° for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350° and bake 30 minutes longer, or until pie is nicely browned.
Cool banana rhubarb pie completely.

Wow. Make this.June 10, 2009By K_Beans
"I'm generally a little skeptical of banana recipes, particularly when they share the stage with some other fruit or vegetable. However... the tang and acid of the orange juice and rhubarb perfectly balance the rounder essence of the banana. The result is almost custard-like and is absolutely fabulous with frozen yogurt; the tangier the better (a la Trader Joe's plain). I would even make this for my family (which includes a restauranteur father and a sister with a very particular palate). For those of you who prefer the woven strips of pastry in lieu of the completely sealed circular top crust- fear not. The bananas caramelize just enough to add a bit of flavor between the pastry but will not burn. A bit of a culinary miracle if you ask me. You can even substitute extra banana for about 1/3 of the sugar without compromising taste or consistency. Enjoy."
