In The Kitchen: Apple, Mint & Rhubarb Pie







Lately when doing my Saturday Farmer's Market shop I have been picking up these gorgeous bunches of rhubarb and fresh mint. Not putting two and two together I would use them separately; the rhubarb on my granola and the mint in salad and smoothies. I got to thinking of what I could make if I used them together and just like that the Apple, Mint & Rhubarb Pie was born! I tried to keep everything as simple and as easy as possible - using pre-made shortcrust pastry is definitely the biggest time saver here. All you really need to do is chop everything up, combine, cover and bake. It really is as easy as pie! 

It tastes just as good, if not better than I had imagined in my head. Serve warm (or cold if you like) with some thick custard and a green tea for the perfect spring after-dinner treat!
