Ingredients

  • 9 inch prepared pie shell

Filling:

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 egg
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups sliced fresh rhubarb

Topping:

  • ¾ cups flour
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1/3 cup cold butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
  2. Place pie shell into 9 inch pie plate.

  3. In medium bowl beat sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, egg and vanilla.

  4. Stir in rhubarb.
  5. Pour into unbaked pie shell.
  6. In a small bowl, mix together the flour and brown sugar. Add the cold butter and use a fork or pastry blender to work the mixture into coarse crumbs. (For easier mixing, cut butter into smaller chunks.)
