Plum pie with shortcrust pastry and tender filling: recipe

Plum is an ideal filling for desserts and pastries, particularly for pies. Such a pie is quite sweet on its own thanks to the filling, but the sour plum perfectly balances the overall flavor. In addition, making a plum pie is easy as it requires a minimum of ingredients and time.
