One word: OMG! This is fabulous. I never imagined plums in pie, but it was perfect. Really reminds me of a sour cherry pie, which is my favorite from when I was a child. Definitely a keeper recipe, thanks!

    This is very close to the one I use, but mine bakes in a 425 oven (crusts wrapped in foil for first 25 minutes), then take off foil for another 25 minutes. I just made one today! For someone who hasn't had a plum pie, I think it's a cross between a cherry and a blueberry. Roxygirl

    This is really really good. Mine came out tart and tangy because of the homegrown red plums tangy skins I used. We liked it that way! It's very much like sour cherry pie. Such a pretty color too! I added a few tablespoons of cornstarch to the filling because my plums were so juicey and I was afraid it would come out too runny. I diced my plums instead of slicing them - I think that added to the cherry-ness of it. I also added a 1/2 cup rolled oats to the topping and increased the butter to 4 tablespoons. It made a nice crumbly top. My family decided to call this pie Crumby Plummy Pie. Thanks for the great recipe!

    I made this for a 4th of July celebration. Everyone loved it. I used 4 Tbsp. of butter in the topping and I served each slice with a scoop of vanilla ice cream... perfect.
