Plum Blackberry Streusel Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Pate Sucree: Pulse flour, granulated sugar, and salt in a food processor until combined. Pulse in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. Pulse in egg yolk. With machine running, add ice water in a slow, steady stream just until dough holds together. Turn dough out onto a work surface; shape into a disk and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 2 days.
• Streusel: Whisk together confectioners' sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough about 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 9 1/2- or 10-inch pie dish (about 1 1/2 inches deep). Using kitchen shears or a paring knife, trim to a 1-inch overhang; fold under. Crimp edges as desired. Prick bottom of dough all over with a fork. Freeze 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees with rack in lower third. Line dough with parchment, pressing it into corners and edges; fill with dried beans or rice. Bake, covered with foil, 20 minutes. Remove beans or rice and parchment (keep edges covered with foil). Bake until pale golden brown, 12 to 16 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool slightly. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees.
• Filling: In a medium bowl, gently toss together plums, granulated sugar, and salt; let stand 15 minutes. Spread 2 tablespoons creme fraiche onto bottom of crust; sprinkle with one-third of streusel. Arrange plums on top; spread or dot with remaining 3 tablespoons creme fraiche. Sprinkle with remaining streusel.
• Bake until creme fraiche is bubbling and streusel is golden brown, about 50 minutes (if edges of crust are browning too quickly, tent with foil). Transfer to a wire rack and let cool 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature with ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• To Make Crust: In a large bowl combine 3 cups flour, 3/4 cups white sugar, baking powder, and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Mix thoroughly, then cut in 2/3 cup butter or margarine with a pastry blender, until pieces are the size of small peas. Stir in eggs, vanilla extract, milk and lemon zest. Mix just until all ingredients are combined. Allow dough to rest in refrigerator.
• To Make Streusel Topping: In a medium bowl mix 1/2 cup flour, brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon salt, chopped nuts, and grated lemon zest. Work in butter or margarine with fingers until all ingredients are well combined. Set aside.
• To Make Fruit Filling: Place pitted and sliced fruit in a large bowl. In a small bowl, mix remaining sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg until thoroughly combined. Pour over fruit and stir gently until all fruit is evenly coated.
• Roll out pie crust and place in a 9 inch pie pan. Trim and flute edges, then pour in fruit filling. Evenly cover fruit with streusel topping and bake in preheated oven for 45 to 55 minutes. Serve warm, or at room temperature.

In a large bowl, combine cherries, plums, sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice; toss to coat., On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 16x12-in. rectangle; transfer to an ungreased 13x9-in. baking dish.
