- 2 tbsps. mesquite

Instructions
Crust:
- Start by mixing together soy milk and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl. Let it sit for at least 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl combine the dry ingredients: flours, salt, cinnamon, and psyllium husk powder.
- Next, dissolve xylitol (or other sweetener) in the soymilk. Then, pour water into the curdled soy milk and stir.
- Now, add the liquids to dry ingredients and mix until well
incorporated. Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate
for 30 minutes.
Filling:
- While the crust dough is chilling, prepare the plum mixture. Start
by cutting the plums in half, removing the stones and adding them to a
large bowl. If you have huge plums, cut them in quarters. To prevent
oxidizing, add lemon juice and toss the plums well (but gently). - Next, sprinkle cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, sugar, and mesquite on top
of the plum mixture and mix until the sugar and spices are well
incorporated. I suggest you sieve mesquite to avoid any bigger chunks. - You’ll now notice some liquid at the bottom of the bowl. This is why
we add psyllium husk powder – sprinkle one teaspoon of it evenly onto
plums and give it a stir. Then, do the same with the second teaspoon.
Avoid making a pile of husk powder as you might end up having lumps of
it in the mixture. Let the plums sit while you prepare the piecrust.
