Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Roll your pie crust into a 12- inch circle. Drape it over a 9-inch pie plate. Tuck the edges under and crimp it, so it looks pretty. Return it to the fridge.
-
Whisk flour, sugar, orange zest, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk eggs, heavy cream, and vanilla in another medium bowl.
-
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk to combine. Add the rhubarb and fold together with a spatula.
-
Pour the filling into the crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
-
Put the pie on a cookie sheet to protect your oven from spillovers. Fold aluminum foil in half and create a cover just around the edges of the pie crust, leaving the filling exposed.
-
Place the pie in the oven. Remove the foil halfway through the baking time. Bake until the custard is fully set, without a jiggle, and the crust is golden brown for about 45 minutes.
-
Let cool on a wire rack to room temperature for about 45 to 50 minutes.
-
Serve this pie slightly warm, cold, or at room temperature. Dust with powdered sugar just before serving. Store leftovers covered and in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
