Little Miss 3 just loves this book; and as autumn is nearing and all the joys of late summer fruit are upon us it's time for one our favourite seasonal treats: Plum Pie. Part of the attraction is the opportunity to take the pie and the book to Preschool to share with her buddies. She was so excited and just couldn't wait to get out the door with her pie.
I adapted this pie from a recipe I found on-line at www.thekitchin.com
End of Summer Plum Pie
20 Black Doris Plums
1/2 cup caster sugar
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
Preheat the oven to 200 deg. C.
Roll out the pastry between two sheets of plastic food wrap.
Serve warm or cold. It makes a lovely lunch box filler too.
All ready to go.
At preschool they read Each Peach Pear Plum at story time and shared the pie.
Happy little girl.
Prudence, will you marry me?
ReplyDeleteYou need to turn these blogs into a book - and with such a pretty model it would be a best seller.
Lol! I think it would have to be a civil union! Not sure what our respective partners would say about that. (The man of the house just said you will have to join the queue)
ReplyDeleteLM3 will be very flattered by your compliment.
Thanks for being so kind to me; I really appreciate it!
