Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. From orange, grate peel and divide between 2 large bowls; squeeze 1/4 cup orange juice into small bowl.
-
In 1 large bowl with peel, combine strawberries, rhubarb, and granulated sugar until well mixed. Into small bowl with juice, add cornstarch; stir until well mixed. Stir juice mixture into fruit mixture until well combined. Pour into 9-inch glass or ceramic pie plate; spread filling in even layer.
-
In other large bowl with peel, combine oats, brown sugar, flour, and pinch salt. With pastry blender or with fingertips, blend in butter until mixture forms coarse crumbs with a few pea-size pieces remaining.
-
Sprinkle oat mixture evenly over strawberry mixture. Place pie plate on foil-lined cookie sheet to catch any drips. Bake 45 minutes or until topping is golden brown and fruit filling is hot and bubbling.
-
Cool pie on wire rack until filling is set but still slightly warm, at least 1 hour. Serve warm.
