Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the milk, sugar, salt, oil, egg and 2-1/2 cups flour; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Do not knead. Cover and refrigerate overnight., The next day, for custard, whisk the eggs, cream and sugar in a large bowl until combined; set aside. Divide dough into 4 portions. , On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 10-in. circle. Press each circle onto the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 9-in. pie plate. Arrange 2 to 2-1/2 cups of fruit in each crust. Pour 1 cup custard over fruit., For topping, combine the sugar, flour and cinnamon in a small bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle 1/3 cup over each coffee cake. Cover edges of dough with foil. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown and custard reaches 160°.

Steps:

• Dough: Dissolve yeast in 1 cup of warm water. Sprinkle a little sugar on top of the mixture. Mix other liquid ingredients in another bowl, add sugar, salt, and a little of the flour. Mix together then add the yeast mixture. Mix well, add remaining flour in small amounts until dough reaches a soft smooth dough. It may be a little sticky which is ok. Cover and let raise until double, only 1 time. Roll out and put in pie pans. Let raise a little bit before adding the fruit and custard.
• Custard: heat 3 pints cream (use a large bowl) in the microwave oven for 9 minutes (Mine takes 60% power for this) In another bowl mix 6 eggs, 1 Cup sugar, 1 teaspoons vanilla, and 3 1/2 heaping tablespoons of cornstarch. Blend together. When cream is done mix this mixture into cream and heat another 9 minutes. Take out and whip until blended. Heat another 6 minutes. Take out and blend well. Custard is now ready to add to crust.
• Fruit needs to be cooked with a little sugar to sweeten before placing fruit on dough.
• Place fruit on dough, pour custard over top of that (don't overfill), sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake at 325 degrees for about 20-30 minutes until crust is golden brown and custard bubbles. Cool and enjoy!
