The Pies Mother cooled was delicious. ( this is the sentences after removing all prepositional phrases).
My understanding - 'The pies mother cooled' is the uncontable noun (something eatable item) where it should take singular verb 'was'. But text book explain that pies is plural so you need to use 'were'.
Can anyone explain further, how it is plural? What is the meaning of "The pies mother cooled"

Can you post the full sentence so that we can understand correctly and answer your question? By the way, pie can be singular or plural noun. But Pies in plural form mean different types of pies or collection of pies. It would be better if you posted full sentence.
