Ingredients

1 (14.1 ounce) package pastry
3 cups pitted plums
1 cup white sugar
0.25 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon lemon juice
0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
0.25 teaspoon almond extract
1 egg, beaten

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for baking.
Prepare a 9-inch pie plate by lining it with one pie crust; set it aside. Also, set the remaining pie crust aside.
In a large bowl, combine plums, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Use a rubber spatula to gently toss until everything is well mixed. Transfer the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
Cover the fruit filling with the remaining pie crust. Crimp the edges to seal, or use a fork dipped in egg to press the edges down. Brush the remaining egg wash over the top crust. Cut several slits in the top to allow steam to vent during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is bubbling and the crust turns a beautiful golden brown, approximately 35 to 40 minutes. Let it cool for 10 minutes before serving.
