But Rashford was not finished yet.
He doubled United's lead 11 minutes into the second half after beating the Leicester offside trap.
Rashford was initially flagged offside but a VAR review reversed that decision and awarded the goal.
Jadon Sancho came off the bench to wrap up United's 3-0 victory.
Rashford's most prolific season had been 2019/20 when he scored 22 goals in 44 games.
His first 24 goals in the current campaign have come in just 36 matches.
Rashford only netted five times in 32 matches last season.
