DEEP DISH PLUM AND ALMOND PIE
This rich, juicy pie is perfect for the holidays. An easy, press-in dough in a springform pan makes it simple to handle, slice, and serve. The intensely flavored almond cream adds depth to the late-harvest plums, and if you're up for going the extra mile, the optional touch of anise in the crust ties it all together.

Steps:
- For the Crust:
- If using the anise seeds, lightly toast them in skillet over medium heat until aromatic, 2 minutes. Grind in a spice mill or mortar and pestle until fine.
- Combine the butter and sugar in a food processor until creamy. Add the egg, anise seed if using, vanilla and salt and pulse to combine. (This may look rough and curdy, but don't worry, it all comes back together.) Add about half of the flour and pulse quickly 3 to 4 times to incorporate. Scrape down the edges of the processor and add the remaining flour. Pulse just enough to make a coarse, crumbly dough.
- Press dough into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan to form a thin, even layer, using waxed paper to smooth. Freeze crust while you prepare the filling.
- For the Filling:
- Pulse 1 1/2 cups almonds in a food processor until very finely ground (take care not to overprocess the nuts or they can get oily). Transfer nuts to a bowl. In the same processor, combine the butter and sugar until smooth. Add the cinnamon and continue to pulse until evenly combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and pulse in the egg. Add the reserved almonds and pulse until just blended.
- Arrange the plums cut side down, over the crust. Spread the filling on top and smooth with a small offset spatula. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup almonds and place in the freezer for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake pie until the filling puffs and is golden but still slightly soft in the center, 1 hour 15 minutes for a glass bottomed pan, or 1 hour 30 minutes for an aluminum pan. If the crust begins to overbrown, cover the pie with foil during the last 15 minutes of cooking. When pie is done, turn off the oven and prop door open. Cool pie in the oven for 15 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
- Serve at room temperature with ice cream or lightly sweetened whipped cream.

PEACH SLAB PIE WITH ALMOND CRUMBLE
Peach pie is my dad's favorite and the first pie I ever made, so it holds a special place in my heart. I add a twist to this version with an almond crumble and a touch of honey to highlight the natural sweetness of the peaches.

Steps:
- For the crust: Whisk the flour, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl. Add the shortening and work it into the flour with your fingertips until the shortening is nearly incorporated.
- Grate the frozen butter on the large holes of a box grater into the flour. Use a whisk or plastic bowl scraper to toss the butter into the flour and break up the pieces until they are the size of peas. Stir the cold water and vinegar together in a cup, then stir the mixture into the flour mixture. Press and fold the dough in the bowl a few times to incorporate dry bits of flour.
- Place two pieces of plastic wrap on a work surface so they slightly overlap. Transfer the
- dough to the center of the plastic. Fold one side of the plastic over and flatten the dough slightly.
- Do this on all four sides to incorporate any last dry bits of dough; repeat if needed. Wrap
- the dough tightly in the plastic wrap and flatten into a rough rectangle. Chill 2 hours or
- overnight.
- Allow the chilled dough to rest at room temperature for 5 minutes. Spray a rimmed 9-by-13-inch sheet pan with cooking spray and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of vanilla wafer crumbs if using; set aside. On a floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle about 12 inches by 16 inches. Transfer to the prepared pan, pressing the dough into the bottom and corners of the pan. Fold the extra dough under itself so the crust is even with the top edge of the pan. Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon wafer crumbs if using over the bottom crust. Chill while you prepare the crumble.
- For the crumble: Stir the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt together in a medium bowl. Stir in the flour and almonds. Set aside.
- For the filling: Place the peaches in a large bowl, sprinkle with the sugar, flour, salt and lemon zest and toss well. Add the lemon juice and honey and toss again. Pour the filling into the chilled crust and scatter the almond crumble over the top. Freeze the pie for 30 minutes.
- When ready to bake, place another sheet pan on the center rack of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the chilled pie onto the preheated sheet pan and bake for 25 minutes. Lower the temperature to 375 degrees F and bake until the top is golden and the filling is puffed and bubbling in the center, 60 to 70 minutes longer. If the pie browns too quickly, place a piece of aluminum foil that has a few holes poked in it over the top of the pie for the remainder of the baking time. Serve warm or room temperature.

PEACH PIE WITH ALMOND-PECAN STREUSEL
Cut from our local newspaper a few years ago. It has become a family favorite. "If apple is the quintessential American pie, then peach is surely our summertime favorite, and all the more if it's served a la mode. To make a peach pie worth of the name, use fully ripe fruit and a pastry crust that's rich and tender but still sturdy enough to contain its sweet, juicy burden without collapsing. To remove the skins from peaches easily, pour boiling water over them, then quickly dip fruit into ice water. Use your fingers or a small knife to slip off the skins. This recipe calls for a crumbly nut topping, but you could substitue a classic lattice crust that lets the fruit show through. Serve the pie warm or at room temperatue, with or without ice cream. To gauge the amount of sugar and cornstarch to use, take your cue from the ripeness of the peaches; if they are very sweet-tasting and quite juicy, use the smaller amount of sugar and the large amount of cornstarch."

Tips:
- Use ripe, in-season plums and peaches for the best flavor. If your fruit is not quite ripe, you can roast it in the oven to bring out its natural sweetness.
- Don't overwork the pie dough. The more you work it, the tougher it will be. Just mix it until the ingredients come together.
- Be careful not to overcook the pie. The crust should be golden brown and the filling should be bubbling.
- Let the pie cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will give the filling time to set.
- Serve the pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
This almond plum and peach pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that's perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tangy filling and flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
