Directions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Combine rhubarb, cherries, sugar, tapioca, and food coloring; let stand 15 minutes.
- Line a 9-Inch pie plate with one sheet of pastry; pour in filling. Dot with butter; sprinkle lightly with cinnamon and nutmeg if desired.
- Top with a lattice crust: From remaining pastry, cut strips of dough 1/2-Inch wide. Lay lengthwise strips on top of filled pie at 1 inch interval's. Fold back alternate strips; fold up as you weave crosswise strips over and under. Trim even along outer rim of pie; seal edges.
- Dampen edge of pie slightly with water and place extra strips around entire rim of pie, covering ends of lattice. Flute edge, pressing well to seal. Bake in 400°F oven for 40 - 50 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
- Tip: If using frozen rhubarb, measure rhubarb while still frozen, then thaw completely. Drain in a colander, but do not press liquid out.
