Ingredients
  

Let's gather the ingredients!

Crust

  • cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ stick unsalted butter cut into cubes
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 medium egg beaten, for egg wash
  • 1 tsp water for egg wash
  • coarse sugar for sprinkling

Filling

  • 8 plums pitted and sliced thin
  • cup light brown sugar
  • tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp orange zest
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch

Instructions
 

Let's Begin!

    Crust

    • Whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter to the dough and use your fingers to work the butter into the dough until the mixture resembled crumbs.
    • Add the sour cream to the mixture and mix in with a fork. Gather the dough into a ball with your hands and flatten it into a disk shape.
    • Wrap the dough with plastic wrap and chill for at least an hour before rolling it out.

    Filling

    • In a medium-sized bowl, gently toss the plum slices with the sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, orange zest, and cornstarch.

    Let's Assemble and Bake!

    • Preheat oven to 375℉. And line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    • Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to a 13-inch round of even thickness.
    • Place the rolled-out dough in the center of the prepared baking sheet. Arrange the plum slices in a circular pattern, starting from 1 1/2 to 2 inches from the outside edge of the dough, working your way into the center.
    • Fold the edges of the pie crust up and over so that circle of the filling is visible.
    • Whisk together the egg and water in a small bowl. Brush on the exposed pastry crust with a pastry brush. Sprinkle with some coarse sugar.
    • Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the crust is lightly browned and the filling is bubbly. Cool on a rack for an hour before serving.
    • Serve and enjoy with family and friends!
