Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a medium bowl, gently combine the pitted and peeled sandhill plums, brown sugar, confectioners' sugar, flour, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and nutmeg. Mix until the plums are evenly coated. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Carefully transfer the plum mixture into the unbaked deep-dish pie crust, ensuring even distribution. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Cut the second pie crust into strips. Arrange these strips in a lattice pattern over the plum filling, crimping the edges to seal. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Lightly brush the pie crust with milk to promote browning and sprinkle evenly with granulated sugar for a delightful crunch. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. To prevent over-browning, carefully wrap foil around the edges of the pie crust. (40 minutes)

07

Step

Continue baking for an additional 7-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. (10 minutes)

08

Step

Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set properly. (2 hours)

For a deeper flavor, macerate the pitted plums with the sugars and spices for 30 minutes before assembling the pie.
If sandhill plums are unavailable, other tart plums can be substituted.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence.

    I used a mix of sandhill and regular plums, and it turned out fantastic!

    Wrapping the edges with foil was a lifesaver! My crust came out perfectly golden.

    Next time, I'll try adding a pinch of almond extract for a different flavor profile.

    A little too tart for my taste, but adding a bit more sugar helped.

    The lattice crust added a beautiful touch. Will definitely make this again.

    This pie was a hit at our family gathering! The sweet-tart flavor was perfectly balanced.
