If you’re looking for what to do with fruit that’s bruised or about to go bad, this peach plum blueberry crumble pie is your answer. Or, if you’re just looking for a seriously delicious fruit crumble pie recipe, you’ve found it!!
Ben, my 3 year old toddler, goes to bed around 7pm (ish…). After we’d put him down for bed, an hour later he started screaming for me. The dreaded “MAMAMAMAMA” at high volume. This, of course, happens as I’m in the middle of a million things…like, you know, WORK, because with the current world situation, my work time is 8pm – 12am, after he’s asleep.
So I went upstairs to see what he needed.
- “Mama, I want PIE”
- That’s a first. He’s never wanted a specific food after he’s gone to bed.
- “Sorry sweetie, we don’t have any pie”
- “But I want pie!!”
- “OK, well, we can make pie tomorrow, goodnight”
- And I slowly backed out of the room in hopes of no one waking. (all three kids share a room).
In the morning I thought he had forgotten. Nope! Immediately upon waking up he told my husband “mama said we’re going to make pie.”
So we set out making pie. I mean, he did, I wasn’t awake yet.
We had a random rolled up pie crust in the fridge and some peaches, plums and blueberries that were a little bruised and about to go bad, so I just kind of made up this recipe, not expecting much.
Our peaches were fresh from this amazing peach truck so they were absolutely amazing and I’m so glad they didn’t go to waste.
But WOWZA, this fruit combination and crumble topping pie was so so yummy. This peach plum blueberry crumble pie is a recipe to come back to and make again and again! This fruit crumble pie would also work with other fruit (strawberries/other stone fruit), so yet another reason to love this versatile and delicious pie!
