Rhubarb Custard Pie with Crumb Topping

[finallyawake]

Rhubarb is in season and our plants are producing prolificly right now! My shelves are filled with Rhubarb Jams and Jellies from last year so I am determined to use as much of it for fresh baking and cooking this year as I can.....or to share it with others.....yesterday I made two of these pies and they are a 5 star hit here! Enjoy!
