Ingredients:
- 1.25 cups (155g) all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup (115g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1 tbsp (8g) granulated sugar
- 0.5 tsp (3g) salt
- 4 tbsp (60ml) ice-cold water
- 1 lb (450g) fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
- 2 stalks (300g) rhubarb, sliced into 0.5 inch pieces
- 0.33 cup (65g) granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp (16g) cornstarch
- 1 tbsp (15ml) lemon juice
- 1 tsp (5g) vanilla extract
- 0.5 tsp (1g) ground cinnamon
- 1 large egg (50g), beaten
- 1 tbsp (8g) coarse turbinado sugar
Instructions:
- Whisk flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl.
- Add cold butter cubes. Use a pastry cutter or forks to mash the butter into the flour until it looks like coarse crumbs with some pea-sized lumps remaining.
- Drizzle in ice water one tablespoon at a time, stirring with a fork until the dough just begins to clump together.
- Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- In a medium bowl, toss the sliced strawberries and rhubarb with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla, and cinnamon.
- Let the fruit mixture sit for 10-15 minutes to macerate.
- Place the chilled dough on a piece of parchment paper and roll into a rough 12-inch circle.
- Pile the fruit mixture into the center of the dough, leaving a border around the edges.
- Fold the edges of the dough over the fruit to create a rustic crust.
- Brush the crust edges with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse turbinado sugar.
- Bake on a flat sheet for 35 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
