Ingredients:

  • 4 plums, sliced
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup sugar (for topping)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon (for topping)
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (for topping)
  • 3 tbsp margarine, cold and diced

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Filling:
    In a mixing bowl, combine sliced plums, 1/2 cup sugar, flour, salt, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss gently until the plums are coated evenly with the mixture.

  2. Assemble the Pie:
    Pour the plum filling into a prepared pastry shell, spreading it out evenly.

  3. Prepare the Topping:
    In another bowl, mix together 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the diced margarine and cut it into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  4. Top the Pie:
    Sprinkle the prepared topping evenly over the plum filling in the pie shell.

  5. Bake:
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for about 60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

  6. Final Touches:
    If the edges of the crust begin to brown too quickly, cover them loosely with foil to prevent burning.

  7. Serve:
    Allow the pie to cool slightly before slicing and serving. For the best experience, enjoy a slice while it’s still warm!

This Perfect Plum Pie is a wonderful dessert option, especially during summer when plums are in season. Its sweet and tangy flavor, coupled with the crunchy topping, makes it a hit at potlucks and family gatherings. Enjoy the burst of plum goodness in every bite!
