Rhubarb Pie
To make a double-crust pie, omit the streusel topping and use a second dough disk. Roll out the second disk as you did the first one. Lay the second pastry round on top of the filling and trim even with the bottom. Fold both overhangs under and flute the edge. Make 3 or 4 steam vents in the center of the top crust and bake as directed.
