Simple plum pie
Description
Perfect with tea and coffee. This cake can be baked with different fruits or berries. This time I had fragrant, ripe, and incredibly juicy plums that were just begging to be used in baking. It's best served chilled, as it tastes better and holds its shape more firmly. Serve warm or chilled. Ideal with tea.
