Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 180C/fan 160/gas 4 and grease a large baking sheet. Unravel the pastry and place on the baking sheet. Mix the sliced apple and rhubarb with the sugar, ginger and cornflour then pile into the centre of the pastry. Gather up the sides of the pastry to enclose the fruit so that the pie looks like a rough tart – you need to work with the size of the pastry so it will be more of an oblong shape than round.

  • step 2

    Brush the pastry with milk and scatter with demerara. Bake for 35 mins until the pastry is golden and the fruit is tender. Cut into slices and serve with custard.

This was really nice with lovely flavours, but it was quite sour and needed a bit more sugar. I also thought the 2 tbsp were too much, I could feel the slightly mealy texture on my tongue afterwards. Instead next time I would maybe cook the fruit for a bit first and pour off the excess liquid to…

I made this as a crumble and my children are sneaking into the kitchen to eat it out of the pie-dish. They don't seem to realise it is rhubarb!
