Full fruit pie that is consumed (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

plump

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'full' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'fruit pie that is consumed' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'fruit' could be 'plum' (plum is a kind of fruit) and 'plum' is found in the answer.
A single letter 'p' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for plump that I've seen before include "Pleasantly chubby" , "Corpulent" , "stout" , "Well rounded - opt suddenly" , "Rotund" .)
