Directions:2 cup sugar
¼ cup flour
¼ cup minute tapioca or cornstarch
Fruit of your choice. Our family favorites are Italian Plums, Macintosh Apples, apricots
Cut the lard and butter into the flour with a pastry blender. Add the salt and the baking powder with a fork. Add the liquid into the flour and stir with a fork until mostly combined. Turn onto a floured counter and bring together with several kneads into a large disc. Wrap with plastic wrap and chill for several hours.
Roll out the dough as you would pie on a pastry mat or well floured surface and make sure you keep the dough from sticking underneath by adding a bit more flour and to the top as well.
Combine the sugar, flour and tapioca for sprinkling over the plums.
Cut long 6 - 8 inch wide strips. Place halved pitted plums or chopped fruit down the center and sprinkle with the sugar mixture. Bring the long sides together overlapping or pinching together. Bring the ends up and overlap on top.
Bake in a 375°F oven until golden brown and the juices clear. |
