Plum & Hazelnut Pie

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. + chilling Bake: 45 min. + cooling YIELD: 8 servings.
My mom taught me about Italian prune plums and pie. Sprinkling the crust with ground hazelnuts gives it a luscious flavor and also keeps it from getting soggy. —Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho

Ingredients

  • Dough for single-crust pie
  • 4 cups sliced fresh plums (about 8)
  • 2 tablespoons hazelnut liqueur, optional
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • TOPPING:
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped hazelnuts, toasted
  • 3 tablespoons cold butter, cubed

Directions

  • 1. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. deep-dish pie plate. Trim crust to 1/2 in. beyond rim of plate; flute edge. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 375°. Toss plums with liqueur if desired. Mix sugar, flour and salt; add to plums and toss to coat. Transfer to crust.
  • 3. For topping, combine brown sugar, flour and hazelnuts; cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over plum mixture.
  • 4. Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly, about 45-55 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
