Purple Plum Pie


Original Recipe from Taste of Home.

Depending on your plums, this pie has a deliciously sweet-tart taste, similar to a mixture of strawberries and rhubarb.  Plus, it's carelessly lavish to look upon.  :)  Hope you enjoy!

Ingredients
Filling:
  • 2 lbs (about 4 c) sliced plums
  • 1 T lemon juice
  • 1/2 c brown sugar
  • 1/4 t salt
  • 1/4 t cinnamon
  • pie dough for 1 pie bottom
Streusel:
  • 1/2 c brown sugar
  • 1/2 c flour
  • 1/4 t cinnamon
  • 1/4 t nutmeg
  • 3 T butter, chopped
Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 375.  Roll pie dough and line it in pie plate or cast iron skillet.  
  2. In a large bowl, toss sliced plums with lemon juice.
  3. In a small bowl, combine remaining filling ingredients and toss onto plums to coat.  
  4. In a small bowl, sift streusel ingredients until texture is crumbly.  Sprinkle over pie.
  5. Bake 30 min, then remove pie and wrap with foil or pie shield.  Bake 20-30 min more or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly.  Let cool 10 min, then serve hot with ice cream or whipped cream.
