Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make a fruit pie? Prepare all products according to the list. Now take the ingredients for the dough: it is better to keep the butter in the refrigerator before mixing, it should be cold; It is better to take cottage cheese with at least 5-9% fat content, it is softer and mixes better. You will learn all the subtleties of choosing cottage cheese by reading the article at the end of the recipe.

Step 2

Step 2
In a blender bowl, combine the sifted flour and powdered sugar. Add cold butter and grind into crumbs. You may need less or more flour, check the consistency. Read about the properties of flour in the article at the end of the recipe.

Step 3

Step 3
Add cottage cheese to the butter crumbs and mix everything again. If there is not enough moisture from the cottage cheese and the dough does not come together, add 1-2 tbsp. cold water (you need to add in small portions so as not to overdo it with moisture).

Step 4

Step 4
We should end up with moist crumbs that can then be collected into a ball.

Step 5

Step 5
Gather the finished dough into a ball, wrap the ball in film and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Step 6

Step 6
While the dough hardens, prepare the filling. Take plums, starch, cinnamon and powdered sugar. Depending on the acidity of the plums and powdered sugar, we take more or less.

Step 7

Step 7
Wash the plums, dry them, remove the pit and divide them into 4-6 parts, depending on the size and your desire.

Step 8

Step 8
Remove the dough from the refrigerator, place it on baking paper or silicone sheet and roll it into a layer 3-4 mm thick. Sprinkle the dough with an even layer of starch, not reaching 3-4 centimeters to the edges. Second option: you don’t have to pour the starch onto the dough layer, but mix pieces of plums with the starch. But I like it better when the starch is distributed over the dough, and a layer of plums is placed on top of it.

Step 9

Step 9
Now place the plum pieces on the starch layer, also not reaching the edge 3-4 cm.

Step 10

Step 10
Sprinkle cinnamon and powdered sugar on top of the plums. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, as in the photo. Bake in an oven preheated to 180 C for about 25-30 minutes until done. The times are approximate, be guided by the operating characteristics of your oven. Read more about ovens and what you can grease the dough with before baking in the separate articles at the end of the recipe.
