Little Jack Horner is said to have eaten a Christmas pie, not specifically a fruit pie. The nursery rhyme goes, "Little Jack Horner sat in a corner, eating a Christmas pie."
A Christmas pie is just a pie, and in this case, it has plums in it.
I don't think the original Nursery Rhyme counts the number of plums. On the lighter side....... I don't think he pulled out any plums. Little Jack Horner sat in a corner eating his Christmas Pie, he put in his thumb and instead of a plum, he squirted juice in his eye.

In the poem "Little Jack Horner", it is "his Christmas pie".
