Plum and cinnamon pie

A single-crust pie for juicy plums. Both greengages and plums bubble down with the sugar to make a richly honeyed filling, but you could use damsons, too, if you can cope with the stones. Occasionally cream is called for with a pie, and this is just one of those occasions.

The pastry crust here is thick, but very tender and will crumble as you serve it. Serves 4.
