Jellied plum pie
8 servings
120 minutes
The poured plum pie is a delicate combination of crispy dough, sweet plums, and velvety vanilla sauce. This dessert originates from Hungarian cuisine, known for its rich and aromatic pastries. The plums give the pie a slight tartness that perfectly complements the sweetness of the filling. Traditionally made during the plum harvest season when the fruits reach their juiciness and rich flavor. The lattice-topped poured pie looks elegant and festive, and its taste pairs perfectly with a strong coffee or a light dessert wine. It is suitable for a cozy family evening or a formal dinner, filling the home with warmth and the aroma of fresh baking.
