Raspberry-Rhubarb Slab Pie

Posted on July 6, 2025

A buttery, flaky crust filled with sweet-tart raspberries and rhubarb, baked in a sheet pan for easy serving—perfect for picnics, potlucks, or a crowd!


Ingredients

For the Crust:

  • 3 cups (360g) all-purpose flour

  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 cup (2 sticks / 227g) cold unsalted butter, cubed

  • 6-8 tbsp ice water

For the Filling:

  • 3 cups (300g) fresh rhubarb, chopped into ½-inch pieces

  • 2 cups (240g) fresh raspberries (or frozen, thawed)

  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar

  • ¼ cup (30g) cornstarch

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)

  • Zest of 1 orange (optional, for brightness)

For Assembly:

  • 1 egg (for egg wash)

  • 1 tbsp coarse sugar (for sprinkling)


Instructions

1. Make the Crust:

  1. In a food processor, pulse flour, sugar, and salt. Add cold butter; pulse until pea-sized crumbs form.

  2. Drizzle in ice water, 1 tbsp at a time, until dough just comes together.

  3. Divide into two discs (one slightly larger for the bottom crust). Chill 30+ minutes.

2. Prep the Filling:

  1. Toss rhubarb, raspberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla, and cinnamon in a bowl. Let sit 15 mins (to draw out juices).

3. Assemble the Pie:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll the larger dough disc into a 10×15-inch rectangle; fit into a 9×13-inch sheet pan.

  2. Add filling (leave juices behind to avoid sogginess).

  3. Roll the second dough disc into a rectangle; place over filling. Crimp edges, cut vents, and brush with egg wash. Sprinkle with coarse sugar.

4. Bake:

  • 40-50 mins, until crust is golden and filling bubbles.

  • Cool 1 hour before slicing into squares.


Tips for Success

🍓 No soggy bottom: Dust the bottom crust with breadcrumbs or almond flour before adding filling.
🌿 Herb twist: Add 1 tsp chopped fresh thyme to the filling for complexity.
🔄 Make ahead: Freeze unbaked pie (wrap tightly) and bake from frozen (+10 mins).


Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!
