Plum pie in the oven: a quick recipe from ready-made dough

There are so many pies! The pastries are delicious, which is why they are popular, especially in the summer season, when there is an abundance of new fruits and berries. The plum pie is especially interesting and fragrant - a recipe that can quickly be prepared in the oven from ready-made, ordinary store-bought dough.

As for the type of test, it is the choice of the housewife. It can be anything, because the fruity inside of plums fits harmoniously with all types: shortbread, puff pastry, yeast, curd, unleavened, stretched, phyllo dough.

The simplest option is a pie with ready-made puff pastry, which is usually sold frozen in any store. But if you wish, you can make any homemade dough with your own hands.

As for the inside, pies with plums are not prepared as often as with apples. But they are adored and have many fans. The freshest plums are used for baking in the summer, and frozen fruits in the winter. Also equally delicious is a pie with plum jam, homemade jam or jam. Although, if there are no plums in the house or you simply don’t like them, then according to this recipe the pie can be baked with other favorite fruits or berries.

Plums for the inside can be consumed entirely, but without the pit. They are often divided into halves or crumbled into the smallest parts. The fruits are placed in baked goods raw or previously subjected to heat treatment. To make the plum interior tastier, add ground cinnamon, crushed nuts, and pour in a little cognac or liqueur.

Ingredients

The process of making plum pie in the oven step by step

Let's start with the plum pie interior. Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium heat.

Make sure the oil doesn't start to burn. This happens due to the high temperature.

If you wish, you can cut the halves in half again or leave them as is.

Place them in a frying pan with melted butter.

Sprinkle the plums with sugar, stir, and simmer over medium heat for 3-5 minutes.

The inside is considered ready when the plums become soft, at the same time they keep their shape and do not disintegrate into puree.

Using a rolling pin, roll out the selected dough (in my case, homemade cottage cheese dough) for the pie into a narrow rectangular layer about 5-7 mm wide.

To prevent the inside from leaking out and soaking the bottom of the pie, sprinkle a sheet of rolled out dough with starch, breadcrumbs or dry cookie crumbs.

Our delicious plum pie is ready! I wish everyone bon appetit!

7 different methods to bake plum pie

Plum pie - useful tips and tricks

• To ensure that the yeast dough for the pie rises easily and quickly, it is kept warm. But this is not enough. All ingredients, including flour, should be warm or at room temperature.

• If the yeast is bad, the dough has frozen in one place or rises poorly, there is no need to throw it away. You can resort to some tricks. For example, dilute another portion of yeast in warm milk, let it sit and pour it into the dough. You will also have to add flour. Instead of yeast, you can add a little baking powder; it will also give it porosity and airiness.

• The plum inside of the pie will be tastier if you add cinnamon, ground nuts, and you can pour in a few spoons of cognac or any liqueur.

• To prevent the inside from leaking out and soaking the bottom of the pie, starch is placed in it. You can also sprinkle a layer of breadcrumbs or dry cookie crumbs under the plums. Cooking

Not all amateur cooks have confidence in handling dough. From time to time, no matter how hard you try, an incomprehensible “something” comes out instead of the base. No need to be upset. You can bake a plum pie, the recipe for which involves using ready-made dough.

It requires:

On both sides of the plum row, cut the dough diagonally. You should get strips no more than 2 cm wide. They need to be wrapped over the plums and intertwined with each other so that the fruits are mostly covered with dough.

Gently coat the pie with milk and place it in the oven for half an hour, with the temperature raised to 200°C.

When ready, sprinkle the dessert with sweet powder. It will turn out like grandma’s traditional plum “basket”. With one exception, puff pastry was previously prepared independently.

How to bake a savory plum pie

1. Puff pastry can be created at home, but it will take time. To save it, you can purchase a semi-finished product at the store and defrost it, following the instructions on the package.

2. We choose dense plums. Very mature fruits will not hold their shape well. Wash selected fruits and dry them. Remove the pit by cutting the plums into slices.

3. For the inside, mix wheat flour, sugar and nuts. This could be peanuts, hazelnuts or walnuts. Anyone can decide for themselves the question of the degree of their grinding.

4. Mix the plum pie filling.

5. At the level of thoughts, we determine where the middle of the dough piece is. Pour the sugar-flour mixture with nuts into the center in the form of a long strip, as in the photo below.

To make it easier to transfer the cake to a baking sheet later, you need to immediately put the dough on parchment or generously sprinkle the board with flour. Otherwise, the dough may stick to the board.

6. Place the plum slices tightly onto the flour mixture.

7. Then use a sharp knife to make cuts, as in the photo below.

8. We braid, placing a strip on one side of the inside on a strip laid on the back side of the plum pie.

9. Fix the ends of the pie so that the juice does not leak out of the inside during baking.

10. Grease a baking dish or baking sheet with vegetable oil. Place the plum pie, carefully moving it from the board. Brush the surface with beaten egg.

11. Bake the pie in an oven preheated to 250 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Readiness indicator: golden brown crust.

12. Cool the finished puff pastry pie with plums slightly after removing from the oven. Then sprinkle with sweet powder, sifting it through a strainer.

13. Serve the delicacy cool or warm. It will be very tasty with a scoop of ice cream or a sprig of mint. The juicy interior and crispy dough will not leave large and small sweet tooths and those who do not consider themselves one of them phlegmatic. Bon appetit!
