Plum-Blackberry Streusel Pie image

Beneath a humble, oaty streusel topping lies a sleek, inky jumble of plums and blackberries-talk about a delicious contrast. A combination of cornstarch and tapioca in the filling helps to keep the colors of the fruit true and to set up their juices nicely without becoming too thick.

This pie has a decorative and tasty streusel topping on it. If using apples in this pie be sure to add 1/4 teaspoon of ground mace in streusel topping.

Categories     Gourmet

Yield Makes enough for a double-crust 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 sticks cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/3 cup plus 1 to 4 tablespoons ice water

Steps:

  • Whisk together flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl (or pulse in a food processor). Blend in butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender (or pulse) just until most of mixture resembles coarse meal with some roughly pea-size butter lumps. Drizzle 1/3 cup ice water over mixture and gently stir with a fork (or pulse) until incorporated.
  • Squeeze a small handful of dough:
  • If it doesn't hold together, add more ice water 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring (or pulsing) until just incorporated, then test again. Do not overwork dough, or pastry will be tough.
  • Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 8 portions. With heel of your hand, smear each portion once or twice in a forward motion to help distribute fat. Gather dough together, with a pastry scraper if you have one, and press into a ball. Divide in half and form into 2 disks. Wrap each disk in plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 1 hour.

Tips:

  • To make the streusel topping, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, and butter in a medium bowl. Use your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • If you don't have a pastry blender, you can use two forks to cut the butter into the dry ingredients.
  • To make the filling, combine the plums, blackberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Toss to coat the fruit evenly.
  • Roll out the bottom pie crust and place it in a 9-inch pie plate. Trim the edges and fold them under. Crimp the edges to seal.
  • Pour the filling into the pie crust. Dot the top with butter.
  • Roll out the top pie crust and place it over the filling. Trim the edges and fold them under. Crimp the edges to seal.
  • Brush the top crust with milk and sprinkle with the streusel topping.
  • Bake the pie for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

This plum blackberry streusel pie is the perfect summer dessert. It's easy to make and packed with flavor. The sweet and tart filling is complemented perfectly by the buttery streusel topping. This pie is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
