    Blueberry Rhubarb pie is a sweet and fresh blueberry and rhubarb pie filling baked into a flaky crust. This dessert is such a summer treat. My son nicknamed this pie Bluebarb pie and it's stuck as the name to call it around our house.

    This Blueberry Rhubarb Pie is a wonderful go to dessert when you are in the mood for a homemade pie. It's really easy to make and is full of fresh fruit. I love mixing up homemade pies with different berries or fruit combinations.

    I made this blueberry rhubarb pie recipe in my grandma's vintage pie plate so I could feel a little closer to her while I made it.

    When I was a child I can remember spending long summer days in my Grandma's kitchen helping her make homemade pies. I think back often of those summers when I am making pies now as an adult.

    What does rhubarb taste like

    I always have a hard time explaining what rhubarb tastes like. The only thing that I can really say is that it is very tart with a light fruity taste. Raw rhubarb while it may look like celery can be tough.

    Because of the tartness rhubarb is mostly used in desserts and cooked with sugar to cut down the tart taste.

    How do I pick ripe rhubarb at the grocery store

    Rhubarb is a vegetable that can be found at many grocery stores. Choose stalks that are firm and crisp with no bruises or blemishes on the leaves.

    Can I use frozen rhubarb

    Yes, you can absolutely use frozen rhubarb for this recipe. I have found that the leaves are much softer so be sure to cut out any leaves or strings from the stalks before using them in your pie batter.

    How do I pick ripe blueberries at the store

    When it comes to picking blueberries, look for a deep color. Blueberries are picked when they are ripe and will turn brown very quickly.

    When choosing your blueberries at the store be sure to inspect them closely for mold. I like to wait to wash my berries until right before I use them so I don't get water spots on my blueberries.

    Can I use homemade pie crust instead

    Yes! This blueberry rhubarb pie recipe can easily be made in a homemade pie crust instead of a store bought one.

    Is it okay to freeze Blueberry Rhubarb Pie

    This blueberry rhubarb pie recipe can be frozen and is a great way to save some for later. You can freeze it unbaked or baked. I have found that the crust does not brown as well once frozen but you may want to try it both ways and see what you think.

    Should I cut the blueberries before making this pie

    There is no need to cut the berries for this pie before you add them into your fruit mixture. If you do not like whole blueberries in your pie then feel free to chop them first.

    How long can I store this pie

    This blueberry rhubarb pie recipe can be stored as long as one week in the refrigerator and I have frozen it for up to 3 months.

    How should I store Berry Rhubarb Pie?

    Be sure to store this pie in an airtight container and place a piece of paper towel between the crust and plastic wrap to keep it from getting soggy.

    Ingredients for Blueberry Rhubarb Pie

    • 2 cups chopped rhubarb
    • 2 cups fresh blueberries
    • 1 ⅓ cups white sugar
    • 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    • 1 tablespoon butter
    • 2 pie crusts

    How to Make Blueberry Rhubarb Pie

    Step 1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

    Step 2. Combine sugar and flour. Sprinkle ¼ of it over the pastry on a pie plate. Combine rhubarb and blueberries and heap them over this mixture. Sprinkle it with remaining sugar and flour.

    Step 3. Dot with small pieces of butter. Cover with top crust.

    Step 4. Place pie on lowest rack in oven. Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), continue baking for 40 to 45 minutes and crust is golden brown. Serve warm or cold.

    This blueberry rhubarb pie recipe is the epitome of summer to me. Fresh fruit, homemade pie and family time. This pie is so easy to make and can be made in about an hour from start to finish.

    I enjoy this recipe during the summer when our local farmer's market is in full swing. It is a great way to use some of the fresh fruit from my garden or the farmers market.

    The best part of this Rhubarb Pie, other than eating it, is probably that if you don't have time to make a homemade pie crust. Leave me a comment and let me know if you enjoyed this recipe.
