Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place on the lower oven rack.
Step 2
Line a 9-inch pie plate with 1 pie pastry. Set aside.
Step 3
Toss together rhubarb and blueberries in a large bowl; stir in 1 1/3 cups sugar, flour, lemon juice, nutmeg, and salt until evenly mixed. Pour into the prepared pie plate and dot with butter.
Step 4
Cover with remaining pie pastry and flute the edges. Cut a few decorative steam vents in top crust. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar; cover the fluted edges with aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning. Place pie on a baking sheet.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes; reduce the heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake for 35 minutes more. Remove the foil and continue baking until crust is golden and juice is bubbling through the slits, about 15 minutes more. Cool completely before serving.
