Plum Tarts

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Line a tart pan with short paste.

  3. Fill the tart pan with plums as high as it will allow.

  4. Sprinkle sifted lump sugar over the plums without adding water.

  5. Cover the tart and bake until golden brown, following the same method as other tarts.
