Ingredients
About a pound of Italian Prunes (no substitutes),pits removed1/4 cup sugar (or less, taste the plums first)1/4 fig jam (or apricot jam)1 quality pie crust (Trader Joe's or Whole Foods is recommended)1 egg and some water (I use egg beaters)1-2 Tbsp unsalted butter, cut into small pieces1 Tbsp turbinado or raw sugar1 tsp cinnamon-sugar
Directions
Wash and cut each plum in half, remove pit. Cut into quarters, skin on.
Add sugar and toss gently.

Be sure to use parchment paper, and place the pie crust on the baking sheet.
Spread fig jam, leaving about a 2" border
Place plums on top of the crust
Fold the crust over, overlapping-- this should look rustic, so don't worry about perfection.
Add butter over the plums, and sprinkle cinnamon sugar.
Brush egg wash over the crust edges and sprinkle turbinado sugar .
Bake at 425F for about 45 minutes, or until done.

Serve, if you dare, with a dollop of fresh whipped cream.
