Italian Plum Tart
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Sift: 2 c. flour
2 T. sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
Pinch of salt
Work in: ¾ c. soft unsalted butter
Beat together and add: 1 egg
2 T. cold water
With your fingers, press dough into a 9” flan pan
Halve and pit: 2 lbs. Italian plums
Overlap them, cut sides down on the dough.
Sprinkle on ½ cup sugar.
Combine: 2 T. flour
¼ c. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
¼ c. slivered almonds
Spread that over the tart and dot with little bits of additional butter.
Bake 40 minutes. Cool before cutting.
(You can use a larger flan pan, too. The crust will obviously be thinner, but some people prefer that. You will probably need more plums then and should adjust the baking time a little.)
