Step-by-Step Instructions for Comforting Healthy Rhubarb Crumble Pie
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare your pie crust by rolling it out to fit a 9-inch pie plate.
  2. Line the pie plate with the crust, and mix 1 tablespoon of flour and 1 tablespoon of sugar to sprinkle over the bottom.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped rhubarb, sugar, and remaining flour. Add lemon zest if using, and stir until well-coated.
  4. Pour the rhubarb filling into the crust, ensuring even distribution and leaving space for the crumble on top.
  5. Combine flour, brown sugar, white sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle the crumble topping over the rhubarb filling evenly, making sure to leave gaps for steam.
  7. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F, then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 45 minutes.
  8. Let the pie cool completely for at least 3 hours before serving with vanilla ice cream.
